Former U.S. President Donald Trump issued a stark warning to Iran, stating that any attempt to acquire nuclear weapons would result in devastating consequences. Speaking on Saturday, Trump asserted that Iran would face a “hellish” response should they pursue a nuclear arsenal, referencing a previous understanding regarding nuclear limitations. He did not detail the specific nature of the retaliation but emphasized the severity of the potential outcome. This statement comes amid ongoing international concerns over Iran’s nuclear program and stalled negotiations to revive the 2015 nuclear deal. Trump’s remarks echo his previous hardline stance against Iran during his presidency, which included withdrawing the U.S. from the nuclear agreement. The comments were made during a public appearance and have been widely reported by international news agencies.
