UNITED NATIONS (AP) — U.S. and Iranian officials faced each other at the U.N. Security Council, where America’s envoy renewed threats against the Islamic Republic despite President Donald Trump’s efforts to lower the temperature between the two adversaries. The U.S. was joined Thursday by Iranian dissidents to rebuke the government’s bloody crackdown on nationwide protests that activists say has killed at least 2,637 people. Mike Waltz is the U.S. ambassador to the U.N. He said Trump has made it clear that all options are still on the table to stop the slaughter. Iranian ambassador Hossein Darzi blasted the U.S. for what it claimed was America’s “direct involvement in steering unrest in Iran to violence.”
