Iran is playing with fire: Trump

Washington, Feb 3 (IBNS): US President Donald Trump on Friday accussed Iran of "playing with fire".

Trump made the remark amid diplomatic spat over Iran's latest ballistic missile test.

"Iran is playing with fire - they don't appreciate how "kind" President Obama was to them. Not me!," Trump tweeted.

Iran Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif tweeted: "Iran unmoved by threats as we derive security from our people. We'll never initiate war, but we can only rely on our own means of defense."

He said: "We will never use our weapons against anyone, except in self-defense. Let us see if any of those who complain can make the same statement."
