In a recent post on his Instagram account, Amir Abdollahian said the only way for Trump to save himself from the current situation is a change of behavior toward “the robust logic” of the Iranian leadership and nation.

Trump is not in a position even to talk about sanctions against Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei, the top adviser further said.

“He is trying to grab only Imam Khamenei’s attention but he has already received the response,” he added.

Earlier this month, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe held a meeting with Ayatollah Khamenei in Tehran.

At the beginning of the meeting, the Japanese premier said he intended to relay a message to Iran from Trump.

In response, Ayatollah Khamenei told Abe, “We have no doubts about your goodwill and seriousness, but with regard to what you relayed from the US president, I see no merit in Trump as a person to deserve the exchange of any messages, and I do not have any answer for him and will not give him any either.”
