Trump Issues Warning to Iran Over Nuclear Deal
Trump referenced recent remarks from Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who cautioned that any American military strike against Iran would ignite broader conflict across the region. Washington has been rapidly expanding its military presence in surrounding areas.
Addressing Khamenei's statements, the president highlighted America's deployment of what he characterized as the planet's most formidable naval fleet to the region while voicing optimism for a diplomatic resolution. "Hopefully we'll make a deal," he said.
"We don't make a deal, then we'll find out whether or not he was right," Trump added.
According to Trump, Tehran initiated talks with Washington on Saturday.
U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matt Whitaker confirmed that same day that Trump has outlined specific requirements for Iran, with future actions hinging on decisions from Iranian leadership. He emphasized the president's limited patience regarding those demands. "The president has been very clear on Iran."
During an interview Sunday, Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi stated that a "just, fair, and equitable" nuclear agreement with the United States remains achievable in the short term, provided Washington abandons its policy of coercion.
Iran's senior security official Ali Larijani had earlier indicated that a negotiating framework was advancing.
Regional tensions persist as U.S. military operations intensify. Trump has dispatched a "massive armada" toward Iran. Additionally, a U.S. guided-missile destroyer recently conducted a port visit in Eilat, an Israeli coastal city situated at the Red Sea's northern end.
