AI Generated Summary

Abbas Araghchi, Iran’s foreign minister, accused Benjamin Netanyahu late on Sunday of dragging the United States into another war to avoid prison.

Araghchi made the charge in a post on X. He used it to warn Washington against any new military action against Iran, and he aimed the message at both leaders.

“Netanyahu is driving America into another war to stay out of jail,” he wrote. He added that the Israeli leader ignores the cost to Israel and to Donald Trump.

Araghchi answers Trump’s endorsement

His post followed Trump’s endorsement of Netanyahu earlier on Sunday, nine days before Israel’s October 27 election.

Trump praised their partnership in confronting Iran. He wrote that if Israel has the wrong leader, America will have to do this work itself, and he is not inclined to.

Araghchi answered with a challenge. Last time Washington wanted to “finish the job,” he wrote, Iran emerged stronger. He invited the US to try its luck again but warned: “we have unfinished jobs too.”
