“I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,” he said Tuesday morning. “However, now that we have complete and total regime change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen.”
Vice President J.D. Vance, during a joint press conference with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, with whom he is currently visiting, said the U.S. is confident it will get a response from Iran before the 8 p.m. E.T. deadline passes.
The U.S. has also once again struck military targets on Kharg Island, Iran’s key oil terminal, according to a White House official. Trump previously threatened to escalate the war by “blowing up and completely obliterating” the Island.
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has reportedly issued a warning of its own, threatening to “deprive the United States and its allies of oil and gas in the region for years” if Trump follows through on his infrastructure threats.
Iran rejected a cease-fire draft on Monday and submitted its own counterproposal.
Trump also expanded on his plan to target Iran, should a deal not be reached on time.
Trump’s threats to target infrastructure have drawn concern and criticism from lawmakers, with some warning such actions could constitute war crimes.
He argued: “It's also a clear war crime.”
“You know what's a war crime? Having a nuclear weapon. Allowing a sick country with demented leadership [to] have a nuclear weapon. That's a war crime,” he argued.
Oil prices surge as Trump doubles down on infrastructure threat
The Strait of Hormuz, a crucial passage between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman through which around a fifth of global oil supply flows, remains largely blocked.
The Trump Administration has offered mixed messaging on the importance of unblocking the Strait.
But on Monday, Trump described it as a “very big priority” after he issued a direct warning to Iran over the weekend, telling the country to “open the f--kin’ Strait” or they’ll be “living in hell.”
