Former US President Trump Issues Stern Warning of Intense Bombing if No Agreement with Iran Reached

Former US President Donald Trump has stated that positive talks with Iran have taken place within the last 24 hours. However, no such positive signals have yet been received from Tehran. Trump indicated a strong possibility of an agreement between the two countries. Yet, he warned that if the Iranian side does not agree, the US would face harsher and more severe bombings.

Iranian officials have said they are still considering the US’s new proposal to end the war. Senior Iranian negotiator Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf commented that Tehran is being pressured by the US to surrender. The White House is confident of a 14-point agreement with Iran, according to a US news report released Wednesday. Although senior Iranian lawmakers who drafted the agreement’s framework have rejected the US “letter of intent,” officials from Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Tehran have stated that perceptions will be shared through Pakistani mediators.

The Pakistani Foreign Minister has said efforts are underway to turn this ceasefire into a permanent end to the conflict. US media noted that a one-page, 14-point memo could form the basis for detailed nuclear talks. The US proposal includes Iran halting its nuclear enrichment program, lifting sanctions, and restoring free navigation through the Strait of Hormuz. Two US sources and two others confirmed that this report was published by Axios.

Ismail Baqee, spokesperson for Iran’s Foreign Ministry, told Iranian news agency ISNA, “Iran is still considering the US proposal and will subsequently communicate Tehran’s position through Pakistan.” Ibrahim Rezaei, spokesperson for the Iranian Parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission, responded on social media platform X, stating, “The US will gain nothing from this war, nor will direct talks yield any achievements.” He added, “Iran is vigilant and prepared; if the US does not yield and offer concessions, there will be a strong response.” Trump expressed hope for a possible agreement but also issued a fresh warning regarding violence. He said, “If Iran does not agree, bombings will begin, and they will be greater and more devastating than before.”
