Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Khatibzadeh said U.S. President Donald Trump “talks too much” while speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the Antalya Diplomacy Forum in Turkey. He made the comment in response to Trump’s recent threat that the United States might “start bombing again” if no agreement is reached by next Wednesday.

Khatibzadeh stated that the U.S. president’s remarks were self-contradictory and unclear about what he actually meant. He emphasized that Iran believes war cannot bring any positive outcome but asserted that the country is ready to defend itself if attacked.

He added that Iran would continue fighting “until the last Iranian soldier,” underscoring Tehran’s stance on self-defense amid rising tensions. The comments were reported by Al Jazeera.
