Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif accused President Trump of “economic terrorism”, “cultural terrorism” and “state terrorism” and maintained that “Iran will launch legal proceedings against Trump on these three charges… we will follow up on this issue with other [international legal] authorities”. Referring to the killing by the U.S. of Qassem Soleimani, Zarif asserted that “by doing this, Trump put an end to presence of the U.S. in the region”. He further assessed that “the U.S. is more Zionist than the Zionist regime [ie, Israel] itself… The ‘deal of the century’ [ie, Peace to Prosperity] proposed by Mr. Trump actually gives the Zionists more concessions than all that they had asked for any time before”.
