US President Donald Trump said the deal with Iran is “not final” and threatened to “go back to shooting” Tehran if it does not “behave”.
Speaking to reporters before meeting with Egyptian President Abdel Fatah el-Sisi at the G7 summit, he said: “It’s not final. It’s a memorandum of understanding, and if I don’t like it, we’ll go back to shooting at them, dropping bombs on their head. If I don’t like it, if they don’t behave, we’ll go right back to dropping bombs right smack in the middle of their head, okay, because they’ve misbehaved for 47 years.”
Trump's remarks came during a bilateral meeting with Egypt’s president on the sidelines of the G7 summit. The US president emphasized that the agreement is not binding and that his administration could revert to military action if Iran fails to comply with expectations.
This statement marks a significant escalation in rhetoric, as Trump continues to criticize Iran's behavior over nearly five decades. The deal, which has been a subject of international debate, remains fragile amid ongoing tensions.
