U.S – IRAN TENSIONS: Trump escalates Iran rhetoric, warns of attack unless deal is reached<\/p>\n

… Iran says it will \u2018respond like never before\u2019 after Trump\u2019s threats<\/p>\n

By Stephen Quillen and Urooba Jamal<\/p>\n

President \u2060Donald Trump \u200bhas revived a threat that the United States is ready to launch a military attack against Iran as he demands Tehran make a deal over its nuclear programme.<\/p>\n

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has said that the Iranian government\u2019s \u201cdays are numbered\u201d.<\/p>\n

Trump has issued his social media threat to Iran, saying \u201ctime is running out\u201d for the government to make a deal that avoids military conflict.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
What exactly did Trump say?<\/div>\n

\u201c\u2026Hopefully Iran will quickly \u201cCome to the Table\u201d 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\u2026\u201d – President DONALD J. TRUMP<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
In his social media post, Trump says that a larger fleet than one sent by the US to Venezuela is heading to Iran.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Iran\u2019s mission to the United Nations said the country will deliver an unprecedented retaliation to any US attack.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Iran says it will \u2018respond like never before\u2019 after Trump\u2019s threats.<\/div>\n
