Iranian President Denies Trump Assassination Plot in NBC Interview, Blames Israel
Jan 14, 2025, 10:24 PM
In an exclusive interview with NBC News in Tehran, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian denied allegations of plotting to assassinate President-elect Donald Trump, asserting that Iran has never attempted nor planned such an action. Pezeshkian dismissed the accusations as part of a scheme by Israel and other countries to promote hostility towards Iran. The interview, conducted by Lester Holt, also touched on broader topics such as Middle Eastern conflicts and Iran's nuclear program. The U.S. Justice Department had previously charged an Iranian national with a murder-for-hire plot targeting Trump during his campaign, a claim Pezeshkian refuted by stating that Iran has never engaged in assassination or acts of terror.
