Trump warns Iran of severe consequences if it doesn't change course
US President Donald Trump warned Sunday that he has reached a critical turning point in the conflict with Iran, threatening severe consequences if Tehran does not change course. He said, "My question is, if and when do I blow the entire nation up? They had better behave." In a Fox News interview, Trump outlined options including destroying the country, economic collapse, or diplomatic resolution, predicting "very big things" soon. Iran's central command vowed retaliation "without any limitations" to any US attack, while Parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf advocated both fighting and negotiating. On Saturday, Iran relayed seven truce conditions to the US via Qatari mediators, warning it would close the Strait of Hormuz and pursue "decisive war" if rejected. Ahead of the UN General Assembly, Trump signaled openness to talks with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian.
