Trump rules out deal if Iran seeks nukes

President Donald Trump has stated there will be no diplomatic deal with Iran if Tehran intends to possess nuclear weapons. The declaration, made via social media, reinforces the administration's hardline stance on Iran's nuclear ambitions. This follows a period of heightened military and economic pressure on Iran, including a US naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The statement appears to set a non-negotiable precondition for any future negotiations.
