Mohammad Reza Aref, Iran’s first vice president, has hit out against the US president over recent remarks about a lack of funding for social programmes in the United States, Al Jazeera reports.
“Trump last night spoke about his inability to provide ‘childcare and healthcare’ for the American people, citing war as an excuse, and today he threatened Iran with destroying ‘power plants and bridges’,” Aref wrote on X.
“Someone who sacrifices their people’s welfare to threaten others is still stuck in the ‘Stone Age’. Iran, however, has chosen a different path: building, even under pressure.”
