TABNAK, Nov, 16 : "We do not comment publicly on the details of the official messages exchanged between the two countries,” the mission said in response to American media’s questions about the allegation of providing ‘written assurances’ that there is no plan to assassinate Donald Trump.
"The Islamic Republic of Iran announced years ago that it is pursuing the issue of the assassination of Martyr Soleimani through legal and judicial authorities and fully adheres to the well-known principles of international law,” the mission said.
On January 3, 2020, a US drone strike near Baghdad International Airport assassinated General Soleimani, former commander of the Quds Force of Iran's Islamic Revolution Guards Corps. The attack, which also martyred Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the second-in-command of Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Units (PMU) anti-terror group, along with several others of their companions, came while General Soleimani was on an official visit to the Iraqi capital.
