Trump says blockades have caused Iran's economy to collapse, asserts Iran will 100% abandon nuclear weapons

Odaily报道 US President Donald Trump stated in an interview on New York's 77WABC radio program that the United States is waiting for Iran's economy to collapse due to the blockade of its ports, adding that he is confident he can prevent the regime from obtaining nuclear weapons.

Trump said: "We have imposed a blockade, leaving them without money and no way to get money." When addressing the conflict, Trump remarked: "It's just a matter of time. We don't have to rush. We have destroyed their navy, destroyed their air force, and also destroyed their leadership."

Despite stalled negotiations with Tehran, Trump stated he fully believes Iran will abandon uranium enrichment and any path toward nuclear weapons. He claimed that American pressure and the blockade are forcing Iran to comply, adding: "They will 100% stop." Trump also noted that the US is in direct contact with Iranian officials and is in no rush to reach a deal. Previously, he described the fragile ceasefire as "hanging by a thread," and tensions between the two sides remain severe. (Jin Shi)
