Iran foreign ministry says Trump assassination plot claim 'totally unfounded'

TEHRAN, Nov 9, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - Iran's foreign ministry on Saturday described as "totally unfounded" US accusations of a plot by Tehran to assassinate president-elect Donald Trump.

The foreign ministry "rejects allegations that Iran is implicated in an assassination attempt targeting former or current American officials," spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said in a statement, after US prosecutors announced charges over the alleged plot.
