Donald Trump on Wednesday accused Iran of being behind plots to kill him.

Citing information reportedly given to him a day earlier by US intelligence, he said, “If I were the president, I would inform the threatening country, in this case, Iran, that if you do anything to harm this person, we are going to blow your largest cities and the country itself to smithereens. We're going to blow it to smithereens.”

There have, of course, been two known plots to kill Trump, one in July and one earlier this month.

But what do Iran’s leaders have to say about the matter?

“We don’t send people to assassinate people,” Iran’s Vice President for Strategic Affairs Mohammad Javad Zarif told GZERO Media President Ian Bremmer on Wednesday during an interview for our nationally televised program GZERO World.
