US President Donald Trump told Fox News television channel that Iran disrespects America and remains "the number one terrorist state."
"They have total disregard for our country. They are the number one terrorist state. They’re sending money all over the place and weapons, and you can’t do that," Trump said.
He promised that the US will act from the position of sanctions against Iran, explaining that "we’ve just started" doing it.
Commenting on the possible new sanctions, Trump said that he would not warn of his actions regarding Iran in advance, saying that he criticized president Obama for announcing his military actions.
