Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has issued a pointed warning to the United States of America, accusing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of pushing Washington toward another war to protect his own political future, according to The Hill. His remarks came after President Donald Trump endorsed Netanyahu, renewing tensions over Israel’s influence on U.S. policy as the conflict with Iran continues.
He sent out a warning in a statement posted on his X account, “Last time you wanted to ‘finish the job’, Iran emerged even stronger. Want to try your luck again? Be our guest. But be careful; we have unfinished jobs too.” Araghchi has repeatedly criticized Netanyahu over the war, arguing that the Israeli leader is willing to put American lives and resources at risk to serve his own interests.
