Iran’s Ahmadinejad condemns terrorism after attempt on Trump’s life
Iran's former president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad condemned terrorism on Sunday in an apparent reaction to the recent assassination attempt on former US president Donald Trump.
Without naming Trump, Ahmadinejad took to X to denounce terrorism as a violation of human rights.
"Terror and terrorism, whether state-sponsored or non-state, are among the most heinous anti-human actions that words cannot express the depth of their evil," in an apparent reference to the attack."Humanity around the world suffers from such severe pains," he said on X.
The statement is part of his efforts in recent years to rebrand himself as a moderate figure in Iranian politics, although many still remember his hardline policies during his tenure, which included the arrest, torture, and killing of numerous protesters.
