US President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he has issued "very decisive" orders for the United States to "wipe them off the face of the earth" if Iran's Islamic Republic attempts to carry out assassination threats against him. In an exclusive interview with NewsNation's "Katy Paulich Tonight," coinciding with the anniversary of the start of his second presidential term, Trump said: "If the slightest thing happens, their entire country will blow up. I will undoubtedly hit them so hard it will be unprecedented. But I have issued very firm orders for this." Trump also criticized former US President Joe Biden, saying his administration did not show a sufficiently decisive response to the Islamic Republic's threats. According to Trump, the failure to respond firmly has emboldened Tehran to continue its threats. He added: "A president must defend the president," and emphasized that even if such threats were directed at someone other than the president, his response would be decisive and without compromise. Trump again referenced the Islamic Republic's use of transnational threats and intimidation, saying any practical action by Tehran will be met with a response that carries a heavy and deterrent cost for Iran's ruling system. @VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

Donald Trump expressed hope on Wednesday that following the protests in Iran, he hopes America won't need to take further action regarding the country. The US President told CNBC on the sidelines of the Davos summit in Switzerland: "We hope there won't be further action needed. They were shooting at people in the streets recklessly and indiscriminately." He repeated once again that Iranian officials had planned to execute 837 people after the protests, but he didn't allow it: "I told them: 'You can't do this.'" The US President also announced that Iran must stop continuing its efforts to obtain nuclear weapons and warned that if these efforts continue, possible future actions are not ruled out. Donald Trump said: "They could have had nuclear weapons long ago, but we hit them... They need to end the nuclear issue." On Tuesday at a press conference, when asked "Has the military option against Iran been taken off the table?" he had said: "No." @VahidHeadline Donald Trump, responding to a reporter's question about transferring US military assets to the Persian Gulf and the possibility of military action against the Islamic Republic, said: "We hope there won't be other action needed, but they're shooting at people blindly in the streets." Trump, responding to criticism about not taking action against the Islamic Republic and supporting the Iranian people, added: "If I had found a cure for cancer, they would have said why didn't you do it sooner? If you walked on water, they would say you don't know how to swim. These are sick people. We call this Trump Derangement Syndrome." He also referred to America's attack on the Islamic Republic's nuclear facilities, saying: "If they want to do it again, it will be repeated again. They must stop the nuclear program. They're constantly testing and ultimately reach the conclusion that they can't do it. We can't allow them to get their hands on it." @VahidOOnLine 📡 @VahidOnline

The Foundation of Martyrs and Veterans Affairs announced in a statement that the preliminary death toll from the nationwide 2025 protests was "3,117 people," declaring "2,427" of them as martyrs. Following the release of these figures, the Secretary of the National Security Council also claimed: "The 690 people who are not among the martyrs are terrorists, rioters, and those who attacked military sites." The nationwide 2025 protests began on December 28th for economic reasons but quickly escalated and took on an anti-regime character. These protests reached their peak on January 8th and 9th following a call by Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi. Although reports of brutal suppression of protesters had emerged in the early days, it reached its peak on January 8th and 9th. At the same time, the internet in Iran was completely cut off and other communication tools were also restricted. @VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline

Steve Witkoff, Donald Trump's special envoy for Middle East affairs, called the massacre of protesters in Iran "horrific" on Wednesday, January 21st, on the sidelines of the Davos summit in Switzerland, and demanded that the Islamic Republic government change its behavior. Witkoff emphasized that the United States is not in direct negotiations with Iran, but he has been in contact with Iranian officials. He added that reaching a diplomatic agreement is conditional on Tehran seriously changing its behavior, and so far no signs have been seen of the Islamic Republic's intention to change its approach. @VahidHeadline 📡 @VahidOnline
