He urged protesters to come to the streets on the evening of Saturday and Sunday, January 20 and 21, from 6 PM and take over the city centers. Prince Reza Pahlavi also invited workers and employees in key sectors of the economy, especially transportation, oil, gas, and energy, to initiate a nationwide strike.

    Donald Trump, the President of the United States, in his latest reaction to the protests in Iran, described the situation in the country as "critical" and stated that protesters have taken control of some cities; cities that, according to him, "no one expected just a few weeks ago."

    He added that the U.S. government is "carefully" monitoring developments in Iran and warned: "If they start killing people again, we will take action and target points that will be very painful for them," clarifying that any potential U.S. action would not include "ground forces."

    Trump continued by referencing the Obama era, stating that in similar cases there had been "retreat," but described what is currently happening in Iran as "incredible" and "significant." He accused the Iranian government of "mistreating the people" and now "paying the price."

    In conclusion, Trump emphasized that Washington is "fully" keeping an eye on the situation in Iran and we must see "what will happen next."
