Iran's IRGC Rejects Trump's Claims of Contact

The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has categorically rejected claims made by former U.S. President Donald Trump that Iranian officials contacted him to request a halt to bombardments. In a statement issued by the IRGC public relations office, the allegations were described as a cover for fleeing the conflict. The statement did not provide further details.

Trump had asserted in recent remarks that officials of the Islamic Republic asked him to stop the bombardments, but no evidence was provided to support these claims. The IRGC's rejection was firm and unambiguous, emphasizing that no such contact occurred.

The denial comes amid ongoing tensions between Iran and the United States, with the IRGC playing a key role in Iran's defense and foreign policy. The IRGC is a major military, political, and economic force in Iran, and its statements carry significant weight.

According to Mehr News Agency (MNA), the IRGC's response was swift and definitive, leaving no room for ambiguity. The report by MNA added that the IRGC's statement did not elaborate on the reasons behind Trump's claims but strongly refuted them.
