Ebrahim Rezaee, spokesman for the Iranian parliament's National Security Committee, said there is a high probability that President Trump will attempt to deceive or mislead, according to an official Iranian statement. The remark continues a theme in Rezaee's recent public statements warning of deception by the Trump administration.
Ebrahim Rezaee, the spokesman for the Iranian parliament's National Security Committee, stated on Thursday morning that there is a "high probability" that U.S. President Donald Trump will attempt to deceive or mislead. The statement was carried by Iranian state-linked sources.
Rezaee has emerged as a prominent Iranian official voice on the U.S.-Iran confrontation. As The Zioneer reported on June 9, he recently stated that Iran's military forces are at their highest level of readiness, and warned of a decisive response to any enemy miscalculation. In early June, he also called for intensifying strikes against enemy economic infrastructure.
The current brief statement, lacking direct threats or operational specifics, fits a pattern of maximalist messaging from Tehran amid stalled diplomatic tracks. What remains unclear is whether Rezaee's warning refers to specific ongoing talks or to Trump's general posture toward Iran.
