‘Very big things going to happen’: Trump in ‘deciding mode’ on Iran war, outlines 3 options amid deadlock
Trump’s comments come ahead of Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian’s expected visit to New York to attend the United Nations General Assembly.
U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly in "deciding mode" as he contemplates potential actions in the Iran war, warning that "very big things are going to happen" if the Iranian regime does not "behave". Tehran has shared its conditions with Washington through mediators to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Trump mentioned three possible options for the war: "wiping Iran out," "letting them rot economically," or "making a deal."
He also expressed openness to meeting Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, who is expected to attend the UN General Assembly in New York, and emphasized the need for Tehran to abide by the conditions. Iran has conveyed seven demands to the U.S., including an end to the war, release of frozen funds, and lifting of the naval blockade.
Iran's military warned that countries supporting Washington could be considered partners in wrongdoing and would no longer be treated with restraint by the Iranian Armed Forces.
