U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a strong warning to Iran, stating that if Tehran does not agree to a new nuclear deal, it will face military action. In an interview with NBC News, Trump declared that if Iran refuses to negotiate, bombing will follow at an unprecedented scale. He also mentioned the possibility of reintroducing secondary tariffs, similar to those imposed during his first term.

This warning comes as Iran has rejected direct negotiations with the United States. Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian reaffirmed that while Tehran refuses direct talks, it remains open to indirect discussions facilitated by intermediaries such as Oman. Pezeshkian emphasized that Iran has always engaged in diplomatic channels but will not negotiate directly with the U.S.

Tensions between the two nations have been high since the U.S. withdrew from the 2015 nuclear agreement, leading to renewed sanctions on Iran. In response, Iran has accelerated its uranium enrichment program. While Western powers suspect Iran of attempting to develop nuclear weapons, Iranian authorities maintain that their nuclear activities are intended for peaceful purposes.

In a further sign of rising tensions, the U.S. has deployed B-2 stealth bombers to Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean. This deployment is linked to Trump’s two-month deadline for reaching a nuclear agreement, with only five weeks remaining.

Beyond the Iran situation, Trump has also expressed frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin over remarks about Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Trump warned that if the U.S. and Russia fail to reach an agreement to end the war in Ukraine, Washington could impose secondary tariffs on all Russian oil.

These developments indicate growing geopolitical tensions, with major implications for global security and diplomacy.
