Can resume strikes if Iran misbehaves: Trump

Can resume strikes if Iran misbehaves: Trump

Shillong Times 1 week ago

Washington, May 3: US President Donald Trump said military strikes against Iran could resume "if they misbehave" even as he said that he was reviewing a fresh proposal from Tehran to end the now paused war.

Trump, on his way to Miami from Palm Beach, said he was reviewing a fresh proposal from Iran to end the war, but was sceptical about reaching a deal, contending that Tehran had not yet paid a big enough price for what they have done to humanity and the world over the past 47 years.
"If they misbehave, if they do something bad, but right now, we will see. It's a possibility that could happen, certainly," Trump said at the Palm Beach airport after a round of golf and an appointment with his local dentist.
The US President said he was looking at the new proposal sent by Iran on the plane and would talk to the media in Miami.
"I'm looking at it (on the plane). I'll let you know about it later… They told me about the concept of the deal. They're going to give me the exact wording now," Trump said.
Trump was also briefed on Thursday by CENTCOM commander Adm. Brad Cooper about new plans for military strikes against Iran. Cooper then left for the region and on Saturday met soldiers on the USS Tripoli in the Arabian Sea.
The US President is also facing pressure from the high gas prices that have shot up to USD 4.39 per gallon, an increase of 47 per cent since the war with Iran began on February 28. (PTI)
