US President Donald Trump issued a severe warning to Iran, stating that he would 'blow up' the country if negotiations for peace do not succeed. In an interview with Axios, Trump claimed that the United States was engaged in significant discussions with Tehran. He emphasized the urgency of reopening the Strait of Hormuz, which has been closed since February 2023 due to escalating conflicts involving the US and Israel against Iran. Trump further threatened Iran through a post on Truth Social, indicating that if the Strait is not reopened, there would be devastating consequences, referring to an upcoming 'Power Plant Day' and 'Bridge Day' in Iran.
