BREAKING: Trump Sends Strong Message to Iran – “We Will Strike Back Hard Again Today”

US President Donald Trump delivered harsh messages regarding Iran, stating that Washington would increase pressure on Tehran. Trump declared that they would launch “very hard attacks” against Iran, adding that Iran would be targeted again today.

Trump added that they are still seeking a compromise on the nuclear deal with Iran, saying that the Tehran administration must sign the agreement. Claiming that Iran has agreed not to possess nuclear weapons, Trump said, “All they have to do is sign the paper. The agreement is fully negotiated.”

The US President also noted that he had temporarily eased pressure on Iran in the past at Pakistan’s request. However, arguing that Iran was prolonging the process despite the parties getting closer to an agreement, Trump stated that pressure would therefore be increased again.

On the other hand, Trump added that the US could not promise whether critical infrastructure such as bridges or power plants would be targeted in possible operations against Iran.

Oil markets accelerated their rise following Trump’s remarks. Brent crude futures gained 2.7%, while US WTI crude rose 3.5%.

In addition to the Iran issue, Trump also touched upon the artificial intelligence (AI) sector, announcing that he would soon meet with the 15 top executives in the industry. Arguing that AI companies should provide greater benefits to the public, Trump stated that he was holding discussions with industry leaders on this matter. He asserted that advancements in AI would provide economic benefits to society as a whole, saying, “Thanks to the steps taken in the field of artificial intelligence, the public will become very wealthy.”
