U.S. President Donald Trump has delivered a strong warning to Iran, giving the nation a two-week deadline to de-escalate or face possible American airstrikes, as tensions in the Middle East continue to rise.
While addressing reporters on Friday, Trump indicated that a decision could be made even before the two-week period he had previously mentioned.
“I’m giving them a period of time, and I would say two weeks would be the maximum,” he stated, stressing the urgency of the situation. “The goal is to see whether or not people come to their senses,” he added, referring to Iran’s leadership.You said:TheChatGPT said:
The comments follow Trump’s earlier statement indicating he would make a decision “within the next two weeks” on whether to authorize military action against Iran. At that point, he left room for diplomacy, citing a “substantial chance of negotiations.
”However, his latest remarks cast serious doubt on the effectiveness of diplomatic efforts—particularly those spearheaded by European nations. Trump openly dismissed Friday’s meeting in Geneva between Iran’s Foreign Minister and representatives from the UK, France, Germany, and the EU, expressing little confidence in European-led peace talks.
“I’m not inclined to stop Israel. They’re winning,” Trump said, signaling strong support for Israel’s ongoing military operations against Iran, which have escalated sharply in the past week.
The president’s increasingly firm tone suggests he may be leaning toward military intervention, particularly if Iran shows no signs of halting its nuclear ambitions.
Tensions across the region have reached a boiling point following a wave of Israeli strikes on Iranian positions and subsequent missile retaliation by Iran. The escalating conflict has drawn global concern and fears of a wider regional war.
Despite urgent calls for calm and diplomatic engagement from European leaders, Trump’s stance appears to marginalize those efforts in favor of a more aggressive U.S. approach
