Trump Raises Prospect of Renewed Iran Strikes as Nuclear Issue Leads US Demands

US President Donald Trump has raised the possibility of resuming military strikes on Iran after the US midterm elections, with the nuclear issue at the forefront of Washington’s conditions.

In magazine remarks, Trump suggested that crushing Iran could bring peace to the world. His comments signaled the possibility of further military action rather than a confirmed decision to launch new strikes.

Iran’s president, meanwhile, reaffirmed the country’s commitment to negotiations, maintaining that Tehran remained on a diplomatic path despite the threat of renewed attacks.

The contrasting messages put military pressure and diplomacy side by side, with Trump leaving the use of force on the table while Iran’s leadership continued to emphasize talks. The nuclear question remains central to Washington’s demands.
