US President Donald Trump says Washington could strike Iran “as soon as tomorrow,” while also suggesting it could instead pursue a “big, beautiful” agreement with Tehran. In comments reported by multiple outlets, he frames the choice as conditional and linked to whether Iran would hold any deal.
According to the reports, Trump responds to questions from reporters about how close the US is to possible action against Iran, saying he is “thinking about doing it” and that he would not necessarily disclose plans in advance. He also reiterates a stated objective of preventing Iran from developing a nuclear weapon, and emphasizes making any agreement “permanent.”
Outlets differ mainly in wording and emphasis. One outlet highlights the “tomorrow” threat and the possibility of a “beautiful deal” without adding additional context, while another (Middle East Eye) adds detail about Trump’s remarks at a rally referencing a prior US-Israeli codename for earlier Iran-related actions.
