Washington: US President Donald Trump has warned Iran that if it does not agree to the nuclear deal, then strict action will be taken against it. According to NBC News, Trump said in an interview that if Iran does not make a deal, then it will be bombed.
Trump said in an interview with NBC News that if Iran is not ready for the deal, then it will be bombed like it has never seen before. This warning has come at a time when tensions have increased between Washington and Tehran over Iran’s nuclear program. Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has rejected Trump’s proposal, saying that Iran will not negotiate with governments that threaten it.
Trump’s warning came in response to a letter sent by Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian to Iran’s supreme leader, which said that Tehran would not hold direct talks with Washington. Pezeshkian said in a televised address that we do not avoid talks. But it is the breach of promise that has created problems for us so far. They have to prove that they can build trust.

Earlier in March, Trump wrote a letter to Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, warning that Tehran would either have to agree to fresh talks or face a military confrontation.
The US withdrew from the deal in 2018 and imposed sanctions under a policy of ‘maximum pressure’. The sanctions applied to all countries and companies doing business with Iran and isolated Tehran from the international financial system, making the economic provisions of the nuclear deal void.
Negotiations to re-implement the JCPOA began in Vienna, Austria, in April 2021. Despite several rounds of talks, no significant breakthrough has been achieved since the last round of talks in August 2022.
