President Donald Trump said today he’s canceled any meetings with Iranian officials as a crackdown on protesters continues, suggesting the window of diplomacy that he saw opening days ago had closed, writes CNN.
In a message on Truth Social, Trump encouraged protesters to keep up the demonstrations, and said "help is on the way".
"Iranian Patriots, KEEP PROTESTING - TAKE OVER YOUR INSTITUTIONS!!! Save the names of the killers and abusers. They will pay a big price. I have cancelled all meetings with Iranian Officials until the senseless killing of protesters STOPS. HELP IS ON ITS WAY", - writes Trump.
He ended by writing "MIGA", or Make Iran Great Again.
On Sunday, Trump suggested he was open to talks with the Iranian regime after receiving communication over the weekend. He said a meeting was being set up. But his message two days later indicated he no longer believes talks would be fruitful.
