Trump calls on Iran to stop violence and promises help to protesters.
Donald Trump's Call to Iran
According to Novyny.live: Donald Trump urged Iran to stop violence against civilians while awaiting a verified report on casualties in the country. In his statement, Trump emphasized the need for humanity and to refrain from violence, which, according to CBS News, has led to at least 12,000 deaths. Meanwhile, Iranian officials claim that the number of dead is around 2000.
Protests and U.S. Reaction
On January 13, 2023, Trump called on Iranians to continue protesting, highlighting the importance of protecting civilians. He also confirmed the readiness of the U.S. to intervene on their behalf, stating that 'help is already on the way.' Trump urged Iranian patriots to continue protesting and to seize institutions, indicating his support for actions aimed at changing the situation in the country.
In addition, Trump noted that he canceled all contacts with Iranian officials until the 'senseless killings' stop. This stance underscores Trump's determination regarding the protection of human rights and civilian populations in Iran.
Recent events in Iran highlight the importance of international reaction to internal conflicts accompanied by significant civilian casualties. Trump's statements may impact not only Iran's domestic politics but also international relations, particularly the U.S. position towards Tehran. The situation remains tense, and the Iranian authorities' reaction to Western calls may determine the further developments in the region.
