Larijani Responds to Trump’s Threat on Power Grid
WANA (Mar 12) – Ali Larijani, secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of Iran, responded to remarks by Donald Trump regarding Iran’s power grid.
Larijani said Trump had claimed he could “destroy Iran’s electricity within an hour but chose not to.”
According to Larijani, if such an action were carried out, “the entire region would face a blackout within half an hour.”
He added that darkness would create “a good opportunity for hunting fleeing American soldiers in the region.”
