United States President Donald Trump on April 22 thanked Iran for purportedly scrapping the executions of eight female citizens at his request.
A day earlier, Trump claimed that the Islamic Republic was planning to hang eight women, citing an unverified post by a pro-Israel activist.
The Oslo-based Iran Human Rights, however, reported that at least two of the eight women had already been released when Trump issued the plea. In addition, Iran’s judiciary said that none of them face the death sentence.
“Very good news! I have just been informed that the eight women protestors who were going to be executed tonight in Iran will no longer be killed,” Trump said in his latest Truth Social post. “Four will be released immediately, and four will be sentenced to one month in prison.”
“I very much appreciate that Iran, and its leaders respected my request, as President of the United States, and terminated the planned execution,” he added.
Iran’s judiciary hit back quickly, describing Trump’s remarks as “false news,” and denying that the women were going to be executed.
“Trump’s empty hand in the field has led him to fabricate achievements from false news,” it said, in response to the U.S. president’s remarks.
The stunt was one of many recent surprise moves by Trump, who announced an extension to the two-week ceasefire with Iran, hours before its deadline, without specifying a timeline. Trump, however, ordered the U.S. military to keep the blockade on Iranian ports.
Trump appears to be employing a range of methods to mount more pressure on Iran amid Pakistani efforts to organize a second round of talks.
In reality, the U.S. and Iran remain far off on most issues, including the fate of the latter’s enriched uranium. An agreement remains highly-unlikely, and a return to war could be costly for the U.S., which explains why Trump is trying everything to get the Islamic Republic to submit.
