Washington, March 6 – In a blistering social media post on X, President Donald Trump has drawn a hard line against Iran, declaring that surrender is the only path forward for the regime in Tehran. ‘No deal with Iran except surrender. Then, with the selection of a great and acceptable leader, we and many of our wonderful and very brave allies and partners will work tirelessly to bring Iran back from the brink of destruction and make it, economically, bigger, better, and stronger than ever before. Iran will have a great future!’ Trump posted.
This comes amid escalating military operations where U.S. and allied forces, particularly Israel, have inflicted devastating blows on Iran’s capabilities. Trump highlighted that Iran is already reaching out for talks after suffering heavy losses. ‘They’re calling, asking how to make a deal. I told them you’re a little late,’ he remarked earlier.
The joint campaign has moved faster than anticipated, crippling Iran’s navy with 24 ships sunk in three days, dismantling much of its air defense, aviation assets, and anti-aircraft weapons. Approximately 60% of Iran’s missile systems and 64% of its launch infrastructure lie in ruins. ‘As soon as they launch a missile, within four minutes, that launcher is destroyed,’ Trump stated, crediting U.S. and Israeli precision strikes.
Trump renewed his call for members of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, military, and police to lay down arms. He promised a brighter future if those within the security apparatus break from current leadership. ‘America and our Israeli allies are destroying the enemy’s strength ahead of schedule,’ he asserted, painting a picture of inevitable regime collapse and post-surrender reconstruction under new leadership.
