Iran’s recent missile test is not a message to Donald Trump and his administration, Iran’s Foreign Ministry said, adding that Tehran doesn’t need to test the US president, as it knows him “quite well.”

Iran conducted missile and radar tests in an area covering 35,000 square kilometers in Semnan Province on Saturday. The drills were held to “showcase the power of Iran’s revolution and to dismiss the sanctions,” according to a statement from the Revolutionary Guards, a branch of Iran’s Armed Forces.

“Iran’s missile test was not a message to the new US government,” Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qasemi (Ghasemi) said on Monday, as cited by Reuters. “There is no need to test Mr. Trump as we have heard his views on different issues in recent days… We know him quite well,” he said.
