Washington (Horn post) U.S. President Donald Trump briefly addressed the ongoing conflict involving Iran during remarks delivered Wednesday night, stating that a new agreement with Tehran is not necessary.
According to excerpts from the speech, Trump said Iran “doesn’t have to make a deal,” emphasizing that U.S. actions would instead focus on ensuring the country cannot develop nuclear weapons.
He added that the United States would only disengage once it is confident that Iran’s nuclear capabilities have been effectively neutralized for the long term.
The comments come amid escalating tensions in the Middle East, where recent military developments have heightened concerns over regional stability and the potential for broader confrontation.
Analysts say Trump’s position signals a hardline approach that prioritizes security guarantees over diplomatic negotiations, marking a departure from previous efforts centered on nuclear agreements with Iran.
The remarks have fueled renewed debate over U.S. strategy in the region and the future of international engagement with Tehran.
