"Trump said: Hopefully Iran will quickly Come to the Table' and negotiate a fair and equitable deal NO NUCLEAR WEAPONS one that is good for all parties. Time is running out, it is truly of the essence! As I told Iran once before, MAKE A DEAL! They didn't, and there was Operation Midnight Hammer,' a major destruction of Iran. The next attack will be far worse! Don't make that happen again."
"It is the starkest indication yet from Trump that he intends to mount some kind of military strike imminently if Iran refuses to negotiate a deal on the future of its nuclear programme. European diplomats had been expecting a crisis to develop over the weekend and detected signs of Israeli nervousness about the scale of possible Iranian reprisals. In recent days it has become clear that Trump is interested in curbing not just the remains of Iran's already shattered nuclear programme"
A large US naval force led by the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln is moving toward Iran, presented as larger than a recent Venezuela deployment and prepared to act with speed and violence if required. The US president urged Iran to "come to the table" for a fair deal eliminating nuclear weapons and warned past actions were followed by major destruction, implying a worse next attack. European diplomats anticipated a crisis and noted Israeli concern about possible Iranian reprisals. The US goal appears to include curbing Iran's nuclear programme and long-range missile capability. Iran's foreign minister rejected negotiation under threats but expressed willingness to talk without preconditions.
