Trump threatens Iran with a ‘massive armada,’ but the demands behind it are even more alarmingPresident Trump sharply escalated his rhetoric toward Iran on Wednesday, warning that a military strike could come “with speed and violence” if Tehran failed to comply with sweeping U.S. demands.
As reported by The New York Times, the president said a “massive armada” was moving into position and urged Iran’s leaders to make a deal before tensions worsened.
The terms amount to sweeping limits on Iran’s military leverageWhile the president has not detailed the conditions publicly, U.S. and European officials confirmed that Washington has presented Iran with three non-negotiable demands.
BREAKING: President Trump says a "massive Armada" is heading to Iran and "like with Venezuela, it is ready, willing, and able to fulfill its mission."
The second condition would limit both the range and number of Iran’s ballistic missiles.
