Trump’s threat to blow “everything up” if Iran won’t make a deal hangs over new ceasefire bid
Iran accused former President Trump of threatening war crimes by repeatedly vowing to attack its civilian infrastructure, warning that such threats are incompatible with diplomatic negotiations. The statement came amid reports of a proposed 45-day ceasefire, with Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman emphasizing that talks cannot proceed under ultimatums or threats of illegal acts. Legal experts have warned that destroying power plants, which sustain hospitals and water systems, would violate international law. Some former U.S. officials argue that targeting regime assets, rather than civilian infrastructure, would be more effective and avoid alienating the Iranian people.
