An Iranian diplomat has advised�Donald Trump to mind his language with a battle-tested nation like Iran, responding to an earlier�foul-mouthed rant by the US president, who is spending his twilight days at the White House.
�If I were Mr. Trump, I DID NOT threaten a peace-loving but warrior NATION in my last days in 1600 Penn,� Iran�s Ambassador to Baku, Azerbaijan, Abbas Mousavi tweeted on Saturday, referring to the White House�s whereabouts.
A day earlier, Trump had said during a phone conversation with conservative American radio host Rush Limbaugh that Iran had better not �f--- around with us� or the US would �do things to you that have never been done before.� The expletive, though, was censored out of the broadcast.

Mousavi�s tweet incorporated a picture of Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani appearing to look menacingly at a much smaller picture of a terrified-looking Trump.

The senior Iranian anti-terror commander was assassinated in a US drone strike in Baghdad in January. He has earned reputation as the �number one enemy� of the Takfiri terror group of Daesh that Washington is widely blamed for creating and nurturing.

Earlier, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Saeed Khatibzadeh also reacted to Trump�s insult in a tweet. �The Iranian people aren't intimidated by the bullying rhetoric of the failing & lawless US regime,� he said.

�Our people leave no stone unturned in defending Iran's dignity. WE will choose response to US crimes�incl sadistic sanctions & criminal assassination of ISIS (Daesh) #1 enemy Gen Soleimani,� the official added.

The Trump administration returned the US's�inhumane sanctions against Iran after leaving a historic 2015 nuclear deal between Iran and other countries in 2018.

On Thursday, Washington imposed sanctions on 18 major Iranian banks in an attempt to�virtually cut off the Islamic Republic from�the international financial network.

Iran has denounced the coercive measures as vehicles of �economic terrorism,� but has vowed that it would survive the US pressure.
