Iranian general, Qasem Soleimani was killed on January 3, 2020, by a U.S. drone strike at the Baghdad International Airport along with five others.
In response, Iran has issued an arrest warrant for President Donald Trump along with 36 others.
In a statement the following day, President Donald Trump said that the general was planning “imminent and sinister attacks” against the United States.
According to CNN, US Special Representative for Iran, Brian Hook, called the arrest warrant a “political stunt.”
In January, Iran wrote a letter to the United Nations and called the attack state terrorism and an unlawful criminal act.
