Tensions with Iran: Trump threatens and the US clarifies policy

In a series of dramatic statements today, US President Donald Trump issued an ultimatum to Iran regarding the emerging agreement between them. According to a report in Borsa Hisse Haber, Trump declared that if the agreement does not progress to his satisfaction, the US will return to taking military action. The remarks received wide resonance; in a report by gdh, the President was quoted as saying: "If they don't behave, we will go back to bombing the center of their heads." Daily Islamist also emphasized that this is only a preliminary draft and that the President remains determined to use force if the arrangement is not acceptable to him.

At the same time, İhlas News Agency reported that Trump clarified that the United States will not make investments in Iran, although it will not actively prevent other parties from doing so. The President expects these steps to lead to a significant drop in global oil prices.

On the internal political side, Vice President JD Vance sought to calm the waters regarding the administration's long-term goals. As reported in gdh, the administration emphasizes that its goal is not to bring about regime change or to install Reza Pahlavi in Tehran, and that the struggle is an internal matter for the Iranian people. This position comes in response to sharp criticism from figures such as Senator Chris Murphy, who argues that Trump's strategy has failed, as despite an investment of $60 billion, Iran has maintained about 70% of its missile capabilities.

Sources identified with positions critical of the administration (such as gdh) are careful to highlight the gap between the President's militant statements and the lack of operational efficiency on the ground, while economic and state-run media outlets (like İhlas and Haber Gündem) focus mainly on the economic implications of the deal and the potential for lowering oil prices.
