Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Khateebzadeh: Trump wants to change the regime in Iran, but couldn't even elect the mayor of New York

"They have actually embarked on a path to change Iran's political structure. By the way, you should know that President Trump has demanded a change in Iran's leadership and claimed he has a say in this matter, but he couldn't even appoint the mayor of New York. Can you imagine such a colonialist approach?"

He wants democracy in his own country, yet he is determined to overthrow Iran's elected president and even carries out assassinations in other countries. This is the path they are taking. While we are engaging in brave resistance. The other path is dialogue and cooperation."

Trump once called the elected mayor of New York, de Blasio, a communist and threatened to cut federal funds for New York if he was elected. De Blasio, in turn, called Trump a "tyrant" and "fascist."
