🔶 US Treasury Secretary: The threats of the Salami Republic do not scare me.
Scott Bessant, the American Treasury Secretary, announced that he left his residence in Washington and moved to a military base following threats attributed to the Islamic Republic on his life.
Emphasizing that these threats will not make him fear or retreat, he announced the continuation of Washington's policy of economic pressure against Tehran.
"Why should I be afraid when our brave military forces in the Persian Gulf and US President Donald Trump are constantly receiving death threats? Bessant said on CNBC on Friday, November 13 (Stone 22).
The US Treasury Secretary, who since August has been leading the campaign of sanctions and economic pressure against the Islamic Republic under the title "Operation Economic Exclusion", emphasized that the latest threats will not prevent him from continuing his activities. On a sharp note, Basant compared the behavior of the Salami Republic to "a dangerous animal caught by the ears" and said: "Therefore, I am following the instructions of the American Secret Service and moved from my home to a military base."
