Pars Today - The President of the United States has acknowledged that Iran is a powerful country.

According to Pars Today, citing Tasnim News Agency, Donald Trump, the US President, who these days is resorting to every means to withdraw from the war against Iran, acknowledged in his latest remarks that Iran is a powerful and intelligent country, with hardworking and strong fighters.

Continuing the criticism of Trump's warmongering policies, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, the President of Brazil, said: "Trump has no right to wake up every morning and threaten a country; he was not elected to do such a thing, and the US Constitution does not allow it."

Referring to Trump's threat on April 7 to "obliterate the civilization of Iran," Lula said his foreign policy is a "very wrong game" that relies on America's military and economic superiority.

The President of Brazil stated that no one has the right to intimidate others, and that those in power must have greater responsibility to maintain peace, emphasizing that world leaders should seek respect, not intimidation.
