Trump Urges Iran to Negotiate Amid Escalation of Conflict Following Israeli Strikes

In a thread on Truth Social, President Trump placed the responsibility for the current conflict on Iran, insisting they must engage in talks before further military actions ensue.


President Trump's remarks mark a significant pivot in U.S.-Iran relations as tensions escalate following recent Israeli military actions targeting Iranian leadership and nuclear initiatives.

In a series of urgent messages posted on Truth Social, President Trump addressed the escalating conflict following Israeli strikes against Iran, stating that Iran must engage in negotiations before facing irreversible consequences. "Iran must make a deal, before there is nothing left!" Trump declared, emphasizing that the nation has brought "destruction on itself" due to its unwillingness to accept a proposed agreement concerning its nuclear program.

Reflecting on the stalled negotiations, Trump criticized Iran for failing to accept a proposal from his administration that would have required the country to cease all uranium enrichment activities. “I gave Iran chance after chance to make a deal,” Trump asserted, highlighting the frustration over their inability to finalize negotiations. Aware of the delicate diplomatic balance, Mr. Trump had earlier counseled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to refrain from military action while discussions unfolded.

However, as the impending Israeli attack loomed, Trump expressed concerns about the repercussions, uttering, “I don’t want them going in,” suggesting that such actions could jeopardize the possibility of talks. In the wake of the Israeli strikes, which reportedly killed several Iranian military leaders and nuclear scientists, Trump continued to exert pressure on Tehran, suggesting that hardliners who resisted negotiation faced dire consequences.

The stalled negotiations had seen American and Iranian representatives scheduled to meet in Oman for a critical sixth round of talks. Following the Israeli strikes, Iran announced its refusal to partake in the scheduled discussions, creating further uncertainty regarding future diplomatic efforts.

As the situation unfolds, Trump's social media proclamations hinted at the potential for heightened military actions, warning that future attacks would be "even more brutal." He reiterated the urgent need for Iran to "JUST DO IT, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!" signaling an ominous trajectory in U.S.-Iran relations and regional stability.
