Iran issued 36 arrest warrants related to Qassem Soleimani’s assassination in January, including one for Donald Trump, whose administration had justified the drone strike as a matter of “national self-defense.”1 2 “This has nothing to do with national security, international peace, or promoting stability, so we see it for what it is—it’s a propaganda stunt that no one takes seriously and makes the Iranians look foolish,” a U.S. special representative to Iran said of the warrants. Members of Congress requested intelligence reports about alleged Russian bounties on U.S. troops in Afghanistan; the scheme was included in an intelligence brief Trump received this spring.
