US President Donald Trump has issued a fresh warning, saying Washington is in serious discussions with what it described as a “new and more reasonable” leadership in Iran to end its military operations. He claimed that significant progress has already been made towards a possible agreement. However, he cautioned that if a deal is not reached soon, or if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened, the United States could escalate its response, including targeting key Iranian infrastructure in what would mark a major intensification of the conflict.
Talks Paired With Pressure
Trump said negotiations were ongoing and suggested an agreement was likely, though not certain. He indicated that reopening the Strait of Hormuz would be a crucial step towards easing tensions and restoring stability in the region.
Trump added the US could strike Iran’s electric power plants, oil wells and strategic locations such as Kharg Island if conditions are not met. He noted that these targets have so far not been deliberately attacked, implying restraint up to this point.
Warning Of Retaliation
The US President framed the threat as a response to past attacks on American personnel. He accused Iran of responsibility for the deaths of US soldiers and others over several decades, describing it as a prolonged period of hostility.
Trump said any future action would be taken as retaliation if negotiations fail or if key demands are ignored. His remarks highlight a dual approach-continuing diplomatic engagement while maintaining the option of military escalation.
The statement underscores the fragile situation in the region, where talks are progressing but tensions remain high. Much will depend on whether negotiations succeed and whether the Strait of Hormuz are reopened in the coming days.
