Trump: “I Have No Desire to Negotiate with Iran. I Expect Nothing Less than Their Complete Surrender.”

President Donald Trump arrived in Washington, D.C., early Tuesday morning after abruptly leaving the G7 summit in Canada to address the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran.

Trump had reportedly requested that the National Security Council be prepared in the situation room.

Trump said Tuesday: “I have no desire to negotiate with Iran. I expect nothing less than their complete surrender.”

“I have not reached out to Iran for ‘Peace Talks’ in any way, shape, or form,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “This is just more highly fabricated, fake news…”

“Today we are about to strike very significant targets—strategic, governmental, and infrastructure—inside Tehran,” Defense Minister Israel’s Minister of Defense Israel Katz said. “The IDF spokesman will issue an evacuation call in Persian.”

“There are over 10 nuclear targets in the Tehran area. We are on the verge of destroying them. Fordow is also a matter that will certainly be addressed.”

President Donald Trump said Tuesday as he was landing in Washington, D.C., that he has not reached out to Iran for peace talks “in any way, shape, or form.”

“I have not reached out to Iran for ‘Peace Talks’ in any way, shape, or form,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “This is just more HIGHLY FABRICATED, FAKE NEWS!”

“If they want to talk, they know how to reach me,” he continued. “They should have taken the deal that was on the table – Would have saved a lot of lives!!!”

Trump arrived in Washington Tuesday morning after abruptly leaving the G7 summit in Canada to address the conflict between Israel and Iran.

“Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, it’s very simple,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One during his overnight flight back to Washington.

He accused Iranian leaders of being unwilling to reach an agreement over their nuclear program, and suggested he was now less interested in talking with them.

“They should have done the deal. I told them, do the deal,” Trump said. “So I don’t know. I’m not too much in the mood to negotiate.”

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga, on urged prayer for U.S. troops and the innocent people in Israel and Iran amid the escalating conflict in the Middle East.

“Pray for our troops,” Greene wrote Tuesday on X. “Pray for the innocent people in Israel and Iran.”

“War has bad consequences,” she continued.

The Republican firebrand added: “We voted for America First.”

The day before, she said people are now “finding out who are real America First/MAGA and who were fake and just said it bc it was popular.”

“Anyone slobbering for the U.S. to become fully involved in the Israel/Iran war is not America First/MAGA,” she said, adding that “wishing for murder of innocent people is disgusting” and “we are sick and tired of foreign wars.”

“Real America First/MAGA wants world peace for all people and doesn’t want our military killed and forever injured physically and mentally … We have spent TRILLIONS in the Middle East and we have dealt with the aftermath of death, blown apart bodies, never ending suicides, and disabling PTSD,” she continued.
