Trump Urges Tehran‍ Evacuation Amid Rising Iran Tensions

WASHINGTON (NewsDirectory3) — President Donald Trump abruptly ended his participation in the Group of Seven summit to return ⁤to washington, D.C., for urgent consultations regarding escalating tensions with Iran. His departure followed a series of events that⁤ saw him‍ suggest a nuclear deal with Iran was still possible, only to later advise Tehran’s residents to⁣ flee.

Trump’s return to ⁣the White House occurred as Israel intensified its military actions against Iran, conducting five days of missile strikes. Israel believes it can considerably damage Iran’s nuclear capabilities,especially with additional support from the U.S.

as Trump considers⁣ deeper American involvement, including perhaps providing ⁣Israel with bunker-busting bombs, he also voiced ‍frustration⁣ with iran’s⁣ leadership for not reaching a nuclear agreement. He now⁢ seeks a “complete give-up” of Iran’s nuclear programme.

“They⁣ shoudl have ⁣done the‍ deal. I⁣ told them, ‘Do the deal,'” Trump told reporters. “So I don’t know. I’m not too much in the⁣ mood ⁢to negotiate.”

Iran maintains ⁤its nuclear program‍ is for peaceful purposes, a claim supported⁤ by U.S. intelligence assessments.

Trump’s G7 Departure and Iran’s Nuclear Program

While at the G7 summit in Canada, the White House announced Trump would be cutting ⁢his trip short. On social media, Trump stated, “IRAN CAN⁢ NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON! Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!”

When questioned about‍ his evacuation comment,⁢ Trump said, “I just want people to⁣ be safe.” He added that the U.S. is “looking at better than a ceasefire” and is⁣ not necessarily seeking a ceasefire.

Trump indicated he might send Vice President JD Vance and special envoy Steve Witkoff to meet with Iranian officials, but dismissed⁢ National Intelligence director Tulsi Gabbard’s testimony that U.S. ‍spy agencies ⁢do not believe Iran is building a nuclear weapon.

speculation of Direct U.S. Involvement in⁤ Iran Nuclear Program

Israel claims its offensive has severely weakened Iran’s air defenses,enabling strikes across ‍the country. ⁢Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insists the bombardment will continue until Iran’s nuclear program and ballistic missiles are destroyed. However, Israel has yet to eliminate Iran’s ⁣Fordo uranium enrichment facility,‍ a⁣ site buried deep underground.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth appeared on television,amid speculation about increased U.S.involvement, stating that Trump wants a deal to curb ⁣Iran’s nuclear program. “His position ⁢has not changed,” Hegseth said. “What you’re watching in real time is peace through strength and America first.”

During a meeting with Canadian ⁣Prime⁢ Minister⁢ Mark Carney, Trump continued to pressure Iran to negotiate over its nuclear program, stating, “They should talk, and⁢ they should talk immediately…⁢ I’d say Iran is not winning this war.”

Despite the escalating rhetoric, ⁤Trump previously rejected an Israeli plan to assassinate Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali⁢ Khamenei, according to a U.S. official.

Diverging Views Among Trump’s supporters on Iran Tensions

Trump responded to criticism from some of his supporters,including Tucker Carlson,who argue that further U.S.involvement would betray his promise to end foreign wars.⁣ Other prominent Trump allies, such as Rep. Marjorie Taylor⁣ Greene and Charlie ⁤Kirk, have also expressed concerns.

Conversely, ‍figures like Sen. Lindsey Graham‍ advocate for ⁣Trump to⁣ “go all-in” in backing Israel and dismantling Iran’s nuclear ⁤program. The debate highlights a widening schism among Trump’s base regarding U.S. foreign policy in the‍ Middle East and Iran tensions.
