US President Donald Trump has warned that American warships are being prepared for potential military action against Iran if ongoing negotiations fail to yield a deal. In an interview with the New York Post, Trump indicated that Washington is keeping all options open amid heightened tensions.
According to the report, Trump said the US is reinforcing its naval strength and equipping warships with top-grade weaponry. “We have a reset going. We are loading up the ships with the best ammunition, the best weapons ever made even better than what we did previously and we blew them apart. And if we don’t have a deal, we will be using them, and we will be using them very effectively,” the New York Post quoted Trump as saying.
‘World’s most powerful reset’ message
Earlier, Trump posted a brief and cryptic message on his social media platform Truth Social, hinting at a major strategic shift. Referring to a “WORLD’S MOST POWERFUL RESET!!!”, the message has added to speculation over Washington’s next move in the region.
