Trump Warns Iran of Possible Annihilation, Hints at Post-Midterm Deal at UNGA
At the 81st United Nations General Assembly, US President Donald Trump issued a stark warning to Iran, presenting a choice between reaching a diplomatic deal or facing potential military annihilation. He suggested a deal could be reached after the November US midterm elections, asserting that Iran was waiting for the election outcome. Trump called for continued economic isolation of Iran and highlighted US naval efforts to maintain oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran's military condemned Trump's remarks as propaganda. Meanwhile, diplomatic talks between US and Iranian officials took place on the sidelines of the UNGA, raising cautious hopes for a resolution.
