World ( The cow news digital ) U.S. President Donald Trump has declared that he no longer considers the agreement with Iran to be in effect, signaling a further deterioration in relations between Washington and Tehran amid rising regional tensions.
Speaking to reporters after meeting the NATO Secretary General in Ankara, Türkiye, Trump said he believes the memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Iran has effectively ended. He also expressed dissatisfaction with NATO’s approach to both Iran and Greenland, though he did not elaborate on the alliance’s specific role.
“I don’t want to make a deal with the Iranians,” Trump said, adding that he considers the ceasefire between the United States and Iran to be over. He argued that Iran would use nuclear weapons if it acquired them and stressed that preventing Tehran from developing nuclear capabilities remains a top priority for his administration.
The U.S. president claimed American forces had carried out significant strikes against Iranian targets the previous night, warning that any attack by Iran would be met with a strong military response. Trump said the United States is determined to ensure that Iran never becomes a nuclear-armed state.
“We will make Iran non-nuclear,” Trump said, accusing Tehran of posing a threat to regional and international security. He also claimed that Iranian authorities target not only neighboring countries but also him personally.
Using a strong analogy, Trump described Iran as “a cancer” that must be dealt with before it spreads further. He argued that early action is necessary to eliminate what he sees as a growing threat, reinforcing his administration’s hardline stance toward Tehran.
The remarks come at a time of heightened tensions between the United States and Iran following a series of military exchanges and conflicting statements from both sides. Diplomatic efforts aimed at reducing hostilities have appeared increasingly fragile in recent weeks.
Meanwhile, according to international news agencies, global oil prices rose by approximately five percent following Trump’s declaration that the ceasefire with Iran was no longer in place. Energy markets reacted to concerns that renewed military confrontation in the Middle East could disrupt oil supplies and shipping routes through the region.
There has been no immediate official response from Iranian authorities regarding Trump’s latest remarks. International observers continue to monitor the situation closely as fears grow over the possibility of further escalation between the two longtime rivals.
