Trump Hints at MASSIVE Iran Nuclear Deal Comeback | Is a Historic Pact Imminent?

In a stunning turnaround, U.S. President Donald Trump has hinted that Washington and Tehran are “getting close” to signing a new nuclear deal—on the singular condition that Iran must never develop a nuclear weapon. This unexpected statement comes just days after Trump labeled Iran the “most destructive force” in the Middle East, sparking backlash from Tehran. Despite months of hostility, four rounds of talks have taken place since March, and Trump’s latest remarks offer a renewed glimmer of hope for diplomacy in the region. #TrumpIranDeal #NuclearTalks #USIranRelations #TrumpSpeech #BreakingNews #MiddleEastDiplomacy #IranSanctions #IranDeal #MaximumPressure #TrumpPolicy #Geopolitics #IranNuclear #TrumpNews #DiplomacyMatters #TrumpIran #JCPOA #NuclearNegotiations #USForeignPolicy #TehranTalks #DealInTheMaking Also Read Donald Trump Urges Apple CEO Not To Manufacture In India: 'Tim, We Are Treating You Really Good' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-urges-apple-ceo-not-to-manufacture-in-india-tim-we-are-treating-you-really-good-4154037.html?ref=DMDesc Mukesh Ambani Meets US President Donald Trump In Doha :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mukesh-ambani-meets-us-president-donald-trump-in-doha-4153777.html?ref=DMDesc Trump’s Trumpet Makes Him a Laughing Stock :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-s-trumpet-makes-him-a-laughing-stock-4153289.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.102~HT.336~

Trump’s BIG CLAIM on Turkey Talks Between Russia And Ukraine | ‘If Talks Progress I….’

US President Donald Trump stated in Doha that he might travel to Turkey on Friday if the ongoing Russia-Ukraine peace negotiations show significant progress. Trump’s comments come as international focus shifts to the Istanbul talks, marking the first direct peace push since the conflict reignited. While Putin isn’t attending, Ukraine’s Zelensky may join if Trump does. This potential high-level presence could reshape the talks.

US President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning that the US will "go back on the offensive" if Yemen’s Houthi rebels resume attacks. After claiming credit for halting a 50-day barrage of strikes, Trump emphasized his leadership ended years of hostility and brought the rebels to the table. He called the ceasefire a victory through strength, not appeasement. However, he cautioned that any violation by the Houthis would prompt swift military retaliation. The situation remains tense as US forces stay on high alert and officials monitor rebel movements closely. #Trump #Houthis #USMilitary #Ceasefire #MiddleEast #BreakingNews #YemenWar #USDefense #TrumpNews #MilitaryStrike #USPolitics #NationalSecurity #Diplomacy #WarOnTerror #WhiteHouse #Geopolitics #PeaceDeal #TrumpStatement #AmericaFirst #GlobalSecurity Also Read Mukesh Ambani Meets US President Donald Trump In Doha :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mukesh-ambani-meets-us-president-donald-trump-in-doha-4153777.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Rejects PM Modi's Remarks On Operation Sindoor, Calls It 'Provocative, Inflammatory Assertions' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-rejects-pm-modis-remarks-on-operation-sindoor-calls-it-provocative-inflammatory-asserti-4153615.html?ref=DMDesc Trump’s Trumpet Makes Him a Laughing Stock :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-s-trumpet-makes-him-a-laughing-stock-4153289.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.102~HT.408~GR.124~

Former Hamas Hostages’ Letter to Trump and Netanyahu REVEALED | Trump Pressed After Edan’s Release

Survivors of Hamas captivity are calling on Prime Minister Netanyahu, President Trump, and envoy Steve Witkoff to act urgently following Edan Alexander's release. In a passionate letter signed by 65 former hostages, they urged leaders not to waste the moment and to halt military action if it means saving the remaining captives. While Trump negotiates new Middle East deals, pressure mounts to prioritize the hostages. With several Americans still held or declared dead, the plea emphasizes cross-border urgency. Netanyahu’s office has not responded to the emotional appeal for a comprehensive deal. #Hamas #HostageCrisis #Israel #Trump #Netanyahu #EdanAlexander #MiddleEastPeace #FreeTheHostages #Gaza #USPolitics #IsraelHamasWar #TrumpDeals #SteveWitkoff #BreakingNews #MiddleEastCrisis #AmericanHostages #AbrahamAccords #SyriaIsrael #WarNegotiations #GlobalAppeal Also Read Hamas Releases US-Israeli Hostage Edan Alexander Ahead of Trump’s Middle East Visit :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-releases-us-israeli-hostage-edan-alexander-ahead-of-trump-s-middle-east-visit-4151571.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan Launches Hamas-Style Missile Attack on Jammu; All Intercepted By Indian Air Defence :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-launches-hamas-style-missile-attack-on-jammu-all-intercepted-by-indian-air-defence-4147919.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Warns Hamas As Israel Strikes Gaza Amid Truce Collapse: 'Negotiations Only Under Fire' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-warns-hamas-as-israel-strikes-gaza-amid-truce-collapse-negotiations-only-under-fire-4098633.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~ED.346~

Iran’s STERN reply to Trump ‘Most destructive Force’ jibe | Nuclear deal falling apart?

Iran has fiercely rebuked former U.S. President Donald Trump after he labeled Iran the “most destructive force” in the Middle East during a speech in Riyadh. Iranian officials, led by Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, slammed Trump’s remarks as hypocritical and deceptive—accusing the U.S. of enabling Israeli aggression in Gaza, Syria, and Lebanon while unjustly targeting Iran. Tehran defended its regional role, framing itself as part of the "Resistance Axis" against oppression, and blamed decades of U.S. sanctions and military pressure for Iran’s economic struggles. #Iran #Trump #MiddleEastPolitics #USIranTensions #IranSanctions #ResistanceAxis #AbbasAraghchi #IranNuclearDeal #USForeignPolicy #TrumpSpeech #RiyadhSummit #IranVsUS #GazaCrisis #IsraelIran #Geopolitics #USHypocrisy #TehranResponse #NuclearTalks #SanctionsWar #TrumpCriticism #IranDiplomacy #MiddleEastCrisis #BreakingNews #InternationalRelations #IranianPerspective #OmanTalks #ForeignPolicyCrisis #USSanctions #TrumpDoctrine #MaximumPressure Also Read Mukesh Ambani Meets US President Donald Trump In Doha :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mukesh-ambani-meets-us-president-donald-trump-in-doha-4153777.html?ref=DMDesc Trump’s Trumpet Makes Him a Laughing Stock :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-s-trumpet-makes-him-a-laughing-stock-4153289.html?ref=DMDesc India Rejects Trump’s Trade Claim New Delhi Denies US Role In India-Pakistan Ceasefire :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-rejects-trump-s-trade-claim-new-delhi-denies-us-role-in-india-pakistan-ceasefire-4151755.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.103~
