Trump Gives Iran Two-Month Deadline to Accept Nuclear Deal or Face Military Action

President Donald Trump isn’t wasting time with endless, fruitless negotiations like his predecessor. This week, Trump made it crystal clear to Iran’s leadership they have two months to agree to a nuclear deal that halts their weapons ambitions or the U.S. military will take action to ensure they never obtain a nuclear bomb.

According to reports, Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff personally delivered the letter to UAE President Mohammed Bin Zayed, who then sent an official to Tehran to hand-deliver Trump’s message to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. The letter, addressed to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, left no room for misinterpretation.

While Khamenei tried to brush off the warning accusing the U.S. of deceiving the world and rejecting negotiations the facts speak for themselves. Under Biden’s weak, years-long “negotiations,” Iran was allowed to build up stockpiles of 60% enriched uranium, just steps away from weapons-grade material. The Foundation for the Defense of Democracies (FDD) estimates Iran now has enough material to build seven nuclear weapons, with enrichment to 90% weapons-grade requiring only 1-5% more technical effort.

Trump, however, is taking a different approach:

• Clear deadlines: Iran has exactly two months to accept a deal.

• Firm consequences: Failure to comply means military action is on the table.

• No appeasement: Trump refuses to repeat Biden’s mistakes, where weakness enabled Iran to amass dangerous stockpiles unchecked.

Trump stated plainly last week “I would rather negotiate a deal… But the time is happening now. The time is coming up. Something’s going to happen one way or the other. I hope that Iran and I’ve written them a letter saying, I hope you’re going to negotiate, because if we have to go in militarily, it’s going to be a terrible thing for them.”

For years, Iran has played the long game stalling, lying, and exploiting Western weakness to get closer to their nuclear ambitions. Biden’s administration bent over backward to keep talks alive while Iran enriched uranium under their nose. Trump’s move is the first serious response they've faced: either halt your weapons program, or the U.S. will halt it for you.

This is exactly the kind of strength and clarity the world needs to prevent rogue regimes from endangering global security.
