Israel tried to kill me: Iran's president

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has claimed that Israel tried to assassinate him. Pezeshkian made the claim in an interview with American journalist and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson.

The interview was conducted on Monday, July 7.

Responding to Carlsen's question, Pezeshkian said: "Yes, they tried. They did so, but failed. He did not specify when the incident took place. He said the attack took place during a meeting. "I was in a meeting. They targeted the area with bombs.

"I am not afraid of sacrificing my soul for my country. None of our government officials are afraid of losing their lives in the line of duty. But will more bloodshed and killings really bring peace and stability to the region? '

"Iran does not seek war, it seeks peace, and the Islamic Republic is still interested in talks with the United States," "he said." 

"We have never wanted to build a nuclear bomb in the past," Pezeshkian said in response to Carlson's question on the nuclear issue. I don't want it now. I don't want it in the future. Because it's wrong. This act contradicts the religious edict issued by our supreme religious leader.
