(Central News Agency, Washington, D.C., 10th, Combined Foreign Reports) U.S. President Donald Trump said today that the Tehran regime is all talk and no action, having dragged out negotiations to resolve the Middle East conflict for too long, and must now 'pay a price.'
According to combined reports from AFP and Reuters, Trump posted on his social media platform 'Truth Social' today: 'Iran is all talk, no action, this Middle East bully is finished!!! They spent too long negotiating a deal that was very favorable to them, and now they must pay the price!!!'
Meanwhile, the largest exchange of fire between the U.S. and Iran since the April ceasefire occurred. The U.S. launched airstrikes in the Strait of Hormuz in response to a helicopter attack. Iran's Revolutionary Guards subsequently claimed to have attacked a U.S. military base in Jordan and 21 other targets in the Persian Gulf region.
The Tehran administration stated it would reassess diplomatic engagement with Washington.
Iran launched missile and drone attacks on U.S. military bases in Jordan, Kuwait, and Bahrain in retaliation for U.S. airstrikes on Iranian targets around the Strait of Hormuz.
This major exchange of fire followed Trump's accusation that Iran shot down a U.S. Apache helicopter near the strait. This marks one of the most serious escalations since Washington and Tehran reached a ceasefire agreement in April.
An Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson stated that Tehran would 'reassess' diplomatic engagement with Washington after repeated U.S. violations of the ceasefire agreement.
