US President Donald Trump has informed Iran that he does not intend to attack and has asked Tehran to exercise restraint, according to Iran’s envoy to Pakistan Reza Amiri Moghadam.
Moghadam said he received the information at around 1am Pakistan time on Wednesday, indicating that Trump did not want war and had urged Iran not to target US interests in the region amid rising tensions.
The Iranian envoy also said people in Iran had a legitimate right to protest and claimed the government had engaged in talks with demonstrators, according to Pakistani newspaper Dawn, who first reported the development.
Moghadam alleged that armed groups were involved in violence in Iran, including killings and attacks on mosques, according to the report.
