U.S. Treasury Secretary: The publication of the photo of my house in the Wall Street Journal jeopardized my security.
In response to a question about the possibility that Iran would try to assassinate him, Scott Bessant, the US Treasury Secretary, refused to give a direct answer and claimed that the publication of a photo of his residence in the Wall Street Journal makes it possible to identify the location of his home.
Bessant, criticizing the performance of this newspaper, Bessant said: "One of the reasons I had to leave my house is that the Wall Street Journal published a picture of it the day I bought the house, which can be traced. We asked the editor not to publish the location of my house, but he did. This action was very irresponsible and dangerous."
According to Reuters, Besant confirmed that he left his residence and was transferred to a military base following threats attributed to Iran and on the advice of the US Secret Service. / Jamran.
