Iran has sharply criticized U.S. President Donald Trump's recent claim that a 'new regime' in Tehran sought a ceasefire, calling it an 'April Fools' joke.' In a statement, the Iranian Consulate General in Mumbai pointed out that President Masoud Pezeshkian has been in office for some time, countering Trump's narrative of a new leadership. The consulate's social media post highlighted that presidents are not replaced through tweets, emphasizing the electoral process. Iran's officials also firmly denied Trump's assertion that they had requested a ceasefire, labeling the claim as 'false and baseless.' Trump's comments suggested that any easing of hostilities would be contingent upon the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil passage, indicating that maritime access is a key factor in potential de-escalation. This exchange underscores the ongoing information war between the two nations amid continued military tensions in the region.
