Trump: renewed strikes on Iran 'highly unlikely' if talks produce a strong deal, but 38 bridges are in his sights
President Donald Trump told CNN on Sunday that restarting open war with Iran is "highly unlikely" if negotiations produce "a very strong agreement," while saying three U.S. aircraft carriers are in the region and that "we have 38 bridges in our site that we can knock down in literally one hour," CNBC reported. Trump has demanded that Iran fully open the Strait of Hormuz and never develop a nuclear weapon. Later on Truth Social he said "Task Force Iron Gate is in full force and effect," adding that "very little gets into, or out of, Iran." Fox News Digital reported that Iran's foreign minister warned Tehran's forces would "rain down hell" if Washington chooses war over Iran's two-day proposal.
