Washington DC: US President Donald Trump on Thursday issued a fresh warning to Iran as negotiations for ceasefire of the ongoing war in the Middle East refuse to move forward. The President warned Iran to get “serious” about the negotiations before its “too late”.
As opposed to the claims of the Iranian officials, Trump also claimed that Iran is “begging" USA to make a deal. In a post on his Truth Social account, he called Iranian negotiators “strange”, saying, “The Iranian negotiators are very different and “strange.” They are “begging” us to make a deal, which they should be doing since they have been militarily obliterated, with zero chance of a comeback, and yet they publicly state that they are only “looking at our proposal.” WRONG!!!”
“They better get serious soon, before it is too late, because once that happens, there is NO TURNING BACK, and it won’t be pretty!" he added.
‘Trump Will Unleash Hell’
Earlier, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that Trump does not bluff and is fully prepared to “unleash hell” if Tehran does not accept a deal to end the ongoing war in the Middle East.

“If Iran fails to accept the reality of the current moment, if they fail to understand that they have been defeated militarily and will continue to be, President Trump will ensure they are hit harder than they have ever been hit before,” Karoline Leavitt firmly stated while holding a press briefing.
This comes after Tehran rejected Trump's conditions for truce.

‘NATO Did Nothing To Help’: Trump
Trump, who has repeatedly been lambasting NATO nations for not helping US amidst the war, on Thursday also launched a fresh verbal attack on the countries for not interfering in the conflict.
In a social media post, Trump wrote, "NATO NATIONS HAVE DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO HELP WITH THE LUNATIC NATION, NOW MILITARILY DECIMATED, OF IRAN. THE U.S.A. NEEDS NOTHING FROM NATO, BUT “NEVER FORGET” THIS VERY IMPORTANT POINT IN TIME!"
His anger towards NATO nations comes despite his repeated claimed that USA does not need their help and its military is performing exceptionally well in the Middle East.
Iran's Conditions For Ending War
Iran on Wednesday rejected Trump's 15-point proposal for ceasefire talks and instead outlined five conditions before America and Israel to end the war in the Middle East, according to Iranian state media. “Iran will end the war when it decides to do so and when its own conditions are met,” Press TV reported, quoting a senior Iranian official.
According to Press TV, the conditions listed by Tehran are:
- A complete halt to "aggression and assassinations" by the enemy.
- The establishment of concrete mechanisms to ensure that the war is not reimposed on the Islamic Republic.
- Guaranteed and clearly defined payment of war damages and reparations.
- The conclusion of the war across all fronts and for all resistance groups involved throughout the region
- International recognition and guarantees regarding Iran's sovereign right to exercise authority over the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran War
The United States of America and Israel launched joint airstrikes on Iran on February 28 in a massive military operation, codenamed ‘Operation Epic Fury’ by the US and ‘Operation Roaring Lion’ by Israel.
Iran retaliated and launched attacks on US military bases located in different countries in the Middle East, including the UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Iran codenamed its retaliation 'Operation True Promise IV'.
The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said, “This operation against the positions of American-Zionist terrorists in the heart of the occupied territories and American terrorist bases began with massive explosions under the blessed code name 'Ya Hassan ibn Ali (peace be upon him)'.”
