Trump Threatens Military Action Against Iran if Nuclear Talks Fail

President Donald Trump has reiterated his preference for diplomacy in addressing Iran's nuclear program, but warned that if negotiations fail, he is prepared to 'lead the pack' in possible military action against Tehran. In recent interviews, Trump stated that the U.S. will not be 'dragged in' to war by Israel but emphasized he could join willingly if a deal cannot be reached, maintaining that Iran must never obtain a nuclear weapon. He denied blocking Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu from attacking Iran, clarifying that he discouraged such action in hopes of achieving a diplomatic solution. Ongoing nuclear talks between the U.S. and Iran are set to continue in Oman, as concerns rise over Iran enriching uranium close to weapons-grade levels. Trump also confirmed plans to visit the Middle East to promote normalization between Israel and Arab states. Secretary of State Marco Rubio noted that Iran could have civilian nuclear energy, but only with imported fuel.
