Iran says Trump assassination plot claim 'totally unfounded'
Iran's foreign ministry on Saturday described as "totally unfounded" U.S. accusations of a plot by Tehran to assassinate president-elect Donald Trump.
The foreign ministry "rejects allegations that Iran is implicated in an assassination attempt targeting former or current American officials," spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said in a statement, after U.S. prosecutors announced charges over the alleged plot.
