Trump Warns Iran Deal Could Collapse: “We’ll Go Right Back To Dropping Bombs”

US President Donald Trump has once again stirred controversy with remarks that appeared to cast uncertainty over the recently announced understanding between Washington and Tehran. Speaking during the G7 Summit in France, Trump suggested that the agreement remains provisional and warned that military action could resume if Iran fails to meet expectations.

Trump Signals Deal Remains Conditional

Addressing reporters at the summit, Trump stressed that the current arrangement is only an initial framework and not a binding final agreement.

"It's not final, it's a memorandum of understanding. And if I don't like it, we'll go back to shooting at them, dropping bombs on their head. If I don't like it, if they don't behave, we'll go right back to dropping bombs right smack in the middle of their head, OK?"

The statement has drawn attention because it comes shortly after both sides indicated progress toward reducing tensions following months of conflict and diplomatic negotiations.

Sanctions Relief Still Uncertain

Trump also clarified that the memorandum does not immediately provide sanctions relief for Iran. According to the US President, discussions on easing economic restrictions will take place later as negotiations continue.

His comments appear to differ from details contained in leaked versions of the agreement reported by Al Arabiya and Bloomberg. The documents reportedly indicate that Iran would be allowed to resume unrestricted oil exports once the deal is signed.

The leaked text also suggests Tehran would move quickly to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most strategically important shipping routes, after the agreement takes effect.

Geneva Signing Expected This Week

The interim accord is expected to be formally signed in Geneva, Switzerland, on Friday. Once signed, Washington and Tehran are set to begin a 60-day negotiation process aimed at producing a comprehensive and permanent agreement.

The Trump administration has repeatedly maintained that any final deal must ensure Iran is permanently prevented from developing a nuclear weapon.

Diplomatic sources indicate that the memorandum is intended to create a framework for broader negotiations rather than serve as the final settlement between the two countries.

Oil Waivers Raise Questions Over US Leverage

One of the most debated aspects of the reported agreement is the decision to grant Iran oil waivers at the beginning of the negotiation period. Analysts argue that allowing Iranian oil sales before a final nuclear agreement is reached could weaken Washington's negotiating position.

Historically, international sanctions significantly reduced Iran's oil exports before the 2015 nuclear deal. Those restrictions were eased only after a formal agreement was concluded.

According to the reported framework, the United States could help secure at least $300 billion for Iran's post-war reconstruction if a final agreement on Tehran's nuclear programme is achieved. The proposal also reportedly includes the eventual removal of US and United Nations sanctions following a comprehensive settlement.

While supporters view the arrangement as a pathway to long-term stability, critics argue that granting economic concessions before a final deal is reached may reduce pressure on Tehran during the upcoming negotiations.
