President Donald Trump announced on July 6 that the United States would either secure a deal with Iran or launch military action to finish the job, renewing his threat as Tehran showed defiance following the funeral of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
This ultimatum signals a potential escalation in long-standing US-Iran tensions, with the outcome likely determining whether the region faces further conflict or a new diplomatic framework.
