Trump Warns of Strikes on Iran Amid Stalled Negotiations

President Donald Trump’s Press Briefing

According to Главком: Speaking at a press conference held on his birthday, U.S. President Donald Trump expressed a desire for global peace while simultaneously threatening military action against Iran due to a lack of progress in talks. He confirmed that the United States is prepared to resume large-scale attacks on Tehran. Trump accused Iranian authorities of excessively prolonging the negotiation process, noting that Washington had already carried out strikes against Iran in the recent past.

Trump’s Remarks on Peace and Military Action

During the briefing, Trump stated:

“Peace for the entire world”

. He emphasized that the text of the agreement with Iran is 'fully finalized' and urged Tehran to begin signing the document. The U.S. president also did not rule out further strikes on Iranian infrastructure if negotiations continue to stall. He warned:

“We will attack them, attack them very hard”

.

The renewed threat of attacks follows the downing of a U.S. Apache helicopter in the Strait of Hormuz. Trump reported that the helicopter’s crew survived unharmed but cautioned that Washington could retaliate for the incident. Earlier, the outlet Glavcom reported that Trump still considers a peace deal with Iran possible, even after the latest escalation in bilateral tensions.

Trump’s remarks underscore the growing strain in U.S.-Iran relations, set against a backdrop of military clashes and diplomatic efforts. Despite his calls for peace, the threat of strikes signals Washington’s readiness to take aggressive action if talks continue to drag on. These developments could have major implications for regional stability and international relations, given the Strait of Hormuz’s strategic importance to global energy supplies.

As tensions escalate between the U.S. and Iran, the White House has also dismissed recent claims from Tehran regarding a supposed joint memorandum. This development highlights the ongoing misinformation surrounding the negotiations.
