US President Donald Trump, during an executive order signing in Washington, DC, claimed that US actions in Iran have significantly prevented mass executions and degraded the country's military capabilities. He alleged that Iran has killed 42,000 people in recent months amid internal unrest, framing the US response as a military operation rather than a war. Trump stated, 'Iran is dying to make a deal' due to its collapsing economy and emphasized the effectiveness of US sanctions, which have severely impacted Iran's oil revenue. He expressed concern over Iran's nuclear ambitions, reiterating that the country should not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons. Trump's remarks come amid heightened tensions, with Iran's Parliament Speaker, MB Ghalibaf, asserting that Tehran will secure the Persian Gulf and counter US presence in the region.
