US president Donald Trump issued a straight warning to Iran on Sunday and suggested that if the Islamic republic attacks American interests, it will be destroyed totally.

"If Iran wants to fight, that will be the official end of Iran. Never threaten the United States again," Donald Trump tweeted.

 

Iran's foreign minister downplayed the prospect of a new war in the region on Saturday, said Tehran opposed it and no party was under "illusion" the Islamic republic can be confronted. "We are certain... there will not be a war since neither we want a war nor does anyone have the illusion they can confront Iran in the region," Mohammad Javad Zarif told IRNA at the end of China visit.

Iran-US relation is really on the high edge and since last US Trumped pulled out of a 2015 nuclear deal and reimported unilateral sanctions that had lifted in exchange for Tehran backing its nuclear program.
