Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, the Speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly, on Tuesday, October 29, threatened the United States and regional countries with attacks on infrastructure and oil tankers during a public webinar session of the parliament.

This comes as the Islamic Republic awaits a formal response from the U.S. to Tehran's proposals, which Donald Trump has previously stated he rejected.

Qalibaf said, "In a region where we do not sell oil, no one will sell oil, and if our security is not ensured, no infrastructure will be safe."

The Speaker of the Islamic Consultative Assembly also described Donald Trump's positions against the Islamic Republic during the United Nations General Assembly as "frivolous," telling him, "Spin around so we can spin."

The newspaper Khorasan, close to Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf, also reported: "If negotiations fail due to nuclear disagreements, the Islamic Republic will have the opportunity to implement its second plan to carry out preemptive attacks and impose a high-pressure war on Trump before the midterm elections."

Several members of the Islamic Consultative Assembly have also threatened other regional countries with attacks from the Islamic Republic. Among them, Alireza Salimi, a member of the parliament's presiding board, stated in an interview with the House of Nation news agency: "It must be accepted that security in the region will either be for all or for no one." He added that the Islamic Republic "will not be a bystander" to any destructive actions in the region.
