U.S. President Donald Trump has set a deadline of ten to fifteen days for a resolution in the conflict with Iran regarding its nuclear program, warning of severe consequences if no agreement is reached. Trump stated that U.S. airstrikes in June 2025 had significantly reduced Iran's nuclear capabilities and indicated a potential for further action. The ultimate goal, he emphasized, is to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear bomb. Iran, in response, has threatened decisive countermeasures against any attack, identifying all enemy military bases, facilities, and assets in the region as legitimate targets. Washington demands Iran cease uranium enrichment and abandon its long-range ballistic missile program, while Tehran maintains its nuclear activities are peaceful and views limitations on its missile arsenal as a red line.
