Iran seeks FREEDOM, perhaps as never before. The USA is ready to help!!!
Warning to Iranian authorities
This statement came amid reports from human rights groups about the mass deaths of demonstrators as a result of actions by security forces. Trump had previously warned official Tehran against using violence against peaceful protesters.
The US State Department emphasized that the administration is closely monitoring every step of the Iranian security forces, and the president's words are a signal of a possible change in Washington's strategy regarding support for opposition movements in Iran.
Context of events
The protests in the country began due to a sharp drop in living standards and rising prices, but quickly escalated into political actions against the current clerical system. Currently, more than fifty people are known to have died, including children. The Iranian authorities have already accused the US and Israel of inciting internal unrest, calling the White House's statements interference in the sovereign affairs of the state.
