President Donald J. Trump today issued a strong warning to Iran about its treatment of protesters. He said the United States will "come to their rescue" if the Iranian government kills people who are demonstrating against the regime.
In a statement from the White House, Trump made it clear that America stands with the Iranian people. "The brave protesters in Iran are fighting for freedom and better lives," Trump said. "If the leaders in Iran start killing them, the US will step in and come to their rescue. We won't let that happen without action."
This comes amid reports of growing unrest in Iran, where people have been protesting high prices, lack of jobs, and government rules. Trump has long criticized Iran's leaders and promised to support those seeking change.
The President added that the world is watching Iran closely. He urged other countries to join the US in protecting human rights. "Iran's regime must stop hurting its own people, or face big consequences," he stated.
Trump's team says this message shows America's commitment to freedom around the world. More details on US policy toward Iran will be shared soon.
