Iran's Foreign Ministry has dismissed a report released by the Department of Justice claiming that it thwarted an Iranian plot to assassinate President-elect Donald Trump. The criminal complaint filed in a New York City federal court alleged that an official in Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps instructed an individual to surveil and assassinate Trump.
The spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry categorically rejected the allegations, describing them as baseless and part of a malicious conspiracy orchestrated by anti-Iranian circles. The ministry emphasized that Iran remains committed to using legitimate and legal means to protect its national interests.
