On Tuesday, the Iran-Israel conflict intensified for a fifth consecutive day, prompting U.S. President Donald Trump to urge Iranians to evacuate Tehran. Trump cited Iran’s rejection of a nuclear deal aimed at curbing its nuclear weapons development as the reason for his appeal.
According to the White House, President Trump was scheduled to leave the Group of Seven (G7) summit in Canada on Monday, a day earlier than planned, due to the escalating situation in the Middle East. American news outlet Fox News reported that Trump would convene his National Security Council upon his return.
“Iran should have signed the ‘deal’ I told them to sign. What a shame, and waste of human life. Simply stated, IRAN CAN NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON. I said it over and over again! Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!” Trump wrote on his Truth Social media platform.
French President Emmanuel Macron commented on Trump’s early departure from the G7 summit, viewing it as a positive step toward mediating the conflict. “There is an offer that has been made, especially to have a ceasefire and to initiate broader discussions. And I think this is a very good thing,” Macron told reporters. “So now we need to see what the stakeholders will do.”
The United States has proposed a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, aiming to halt the ongoing attacks and initiate broader diplomatic discussions. The international community watches closely as tensions rise in the Middle East.
