D. Trump stated that he will decide within 10 days whether the U.S. will strike Iran

U.S. President D. Trump announced that a decision on whether to take military action against Iran will be made within the next 10 days, emphasizing the need for a nuclear agreement.

U.S. President Donald Trump declared that he will make a decision in the next 10 days regarding potential military action against Iran. In a statement made in Washington, he indicated that there may be a need to take one more step against Iran, which he believes poses a considerable threat to the stability of the region. Trump emphasized that a meaningful nuclear agreement must be reached, warning of 'bad things' happening if a deal is not struck.

In light of the escalating tensions, the U.S. has deployed additional naval and air resources in the region, including two aircraft carriers, to increase pressure on Tehran. Trump spoke about the ongoing negotiations with Iran, which have recently taken place in Geneva, and expressed that these discussions have been productive. However, he reiterated the United States' firm stance that Iran must not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons.

Tehran has consistently denied any intentions to develop nuclear weapons and has indicated its willingness to limit its civilian nuclear program in exchange for the lifting of stringent economic sanctions imposed by the U.S. This situation underscores the delicate balance of diplomacy and potential military action in a region marked by instability and tension over nuclear proliferation.
