Trump Ready to Use Military Force Against Iran
World
US President Donald Trump has once again threatened Iran with military action if the country does not return to the nuclear deal.
A few days before the planned meeting between the US and Iran regarding the nuclear deal, President Donald Trump reaffirmed his intention to initiate military action if Tehran does not accept his ultimatum. Trump made this statement in a conversation with journalists on April 9.
According to Trump, he wants Iran to prosper and be "great," but he will not allow it to have nuclear weapons. He also promised to use military force if necessary, stating that Israel would also participate in any potential attack.
"If necessary, we will act militarily. Israel will certainly be very active in this. They will be the leaders. But no one will be in charge of us. We do what we want," said Trump.
After multiple threats from Trump, Iran has promised the US a "strong response" and called on Washington to avoid escalation.
Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that Iran does not intend to engage in a conflict with the US.
On April 12, an official meeting will take place in Oman between the US and Iranian delegations.
Ahead of this meeting, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian emphasized that Iran is seeking to improve relations with the US. He also mentioned that if both sides can stop the escalation, the US could invest directly in Iran.
"The Supreme Leadership of Iran does not oppose American investors coming to Iran and investing," said Pezeshkian.
Additionally, Iran is negotiating with Trump about the possibility of holding direct talks regarding the nuclear deal, according to Reuters.
On April 9, the US Department of the Treasury added five Iranian companies and one individual to the sanctions list, accusing them of supporting Iran's nuclear program.
