In the wake of escalating conflict between Israel and Iran, former U.S. President Donald Trump has issued a bold and pointed warning to Tehran, urging its leadership to return to the negotiating table before it’s too late.
Speaking about the ongoing crisis and Iran’s controversial nuclear program, Trump remarked, “There is still time—make a deal now, or the consequences will be much worse later.” His statement comes as Israel intensifies its military operations, targeting Iranian military and nuclear infrastructure in what it calls a “preemptive defense.”
Trump, known for his hardline stance on Iran during his presidency, reiterated that Iran’s ambitions to develop nuclear weapons could destabilize the entire Middle East. “The situation is critical, but not beyond repair,” he added, stressing that a diplomatic resolution is still possible.
The former president also took the opportunity to praise Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decisive leadership, saying, “Israel has every right to defend itself. Their actions are justified in the face of imminent threats.”
As missile exchanges and military escalations continue, Trump’s remarks reflect growing international pressure on Iran to curb its nuclear activities and engage in serious dialogue. Analysts believe Trump’s message could influence future U.S. foreign policy stances, particularly if he seeks another term in office.
Meanwhile, the United Nations and global powers have called for restraint, fearing that further confrontation could spiral into a regional war with global repercussions.
