US president says “help is on the way” as Iran faces escalating anti-government protests
US President Donald Trump has issued a direct message to the Iranian public amid ongoing anti-government protests, urging demonstrators to continue their movement and take control of national institutions. In a post on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump said support was on the way and warned Iranian authorities that those responsible for violence against protesters would be held accountable.
Trump also announced the cancellation of all meetings and negotiations with Iranian officials, stating that diplomatic engagement would remain suspended until Tehran halts what he described as the killing of protesters. The statement marks Trump’s strongest public intervention yet during Iran’s latest unrest and signals a hardening US stance toward the Iranian government.
