Is Iran involved in the attack on Donald Trump? Questions are being raised after the revelations | Iran plot to assassinate Trum

Former US President Donald Trump was attacked at an election rally on Saturday. It has been 3 days since the incident. Every day new information related to this is coming out. Now the name of America’s arch enemy Iran is also being linked to the attack on Trump. According to a CNN report, before the attack, the US administration had received intelligence that Iran was plotting to assassinate Donald Trump. After receiving information about the threat, the security agencies had also increased Trump’s security.
However, no evidence has been found that the man who shot the former president, Matthew Crooks, was a part of Iran’s conspiracy. Despite the information about the foreign conspiracy and increased security of Trump, the 20-year-old attacker managed to reach close to Trump and fired bullets. This is raising many questions on the Pennsylvania police and security agencies.
Trump’s team was aware of the threat
According to CNN, Trump’s election campaign team, the Secret Service, was aware of the threat before Saturday’s rally. A US national security official told CNN, the Secret Service and the Trump campaign were aware of the threat before Saturday’s rally. The official told CNN, the Secret Service came to know about this threat. The NSC directly contacted the USSS at a senior level and officials were informed about the threat. In view of the increasing threat, the Secret Service had increased resources and assets for the security of former President Trump before Saturday.

Trump’s election team has not revealed whether it knew about the Iranian threat. The campaign said in a statement, “We do not comment on Trump’s security policies. All questions should be directed to the United States Secret Service.”
Warning was given not to hold meetings in the open
Security agencies had advised the Trump campaign not to hold any large gatherings in the open because it is difficult for security agencies to control such events. People associated with the Trump campaign said that the agencies’ warning was not serious but was in the form of an advice.
Iran’s envoy responded
Iran’s ambassador to the US has rejected the allegations. The Iranian embassy said the allegations are baseless and malicious. The Islamic Republic of Iran considers Trump a criminal who is accused of killing General Suleimani and he should be punished in a court of law. Iran has chosen the legal route to bring him to justice. Qasim Suleimani, the commander of the Iranian army’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, was killed in a US airstrike at Baghdad International Airport in January 2020.
