In a post on his Twitter account on Wednesday, Zarif said, "When @realDonaldTrump's
own intelligence agencies contradict what he, the warmongers in his admin, and
the Israelis say about Iran.”
"He should have listened to the EU, the UN, and former US officials all along,”
Zarif noted.
He also attached a picture showing the titles of two articles, one about US
national security advisor John Bolton’s accusation that Iran has been pursuing
nuclear weapons, and the other one about several cases that Director of US
National Intelligence Dan Coats has contradicted Trump’s statements.
In an article on Tuesday, the Time said Coats has contradicted President Trump’s
statements on North Korea, Syria and Russia in an address to the Senate and had
argued that Daesh (ISIS) terrorist group continues to pose a threat to the US
despite the Administration’s claims that it has been defeated.
Meanwhile, US President Trump also wrote a message in his Twitter account on
Wednesday, saying, "The Intelligence people seem to be extremely passive and
naive when it comes to the dangers of Iran. They are wrong!”
"Be careful of Iran. Perhaps Intelligence should go back to school!” Trump said
about his own country’s intelligence bodies.
