US President Donald Trump has escalated his rhetoric against Iran, warning that the United States will strike any site that Iran considers for nuclear weapons development. In a statement, Trump said the situation with Iran is far from over and that the US has already had a significant impact on the country. He emphasized that the US will not leave and that any agreement must prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear arms. Trump claimed that Iran has not yet seen the full extent of US capabilities, adding that the US has been restrained so far. He specifically mentioned the Gaoshan region as a target for imminent and severe military strikes. The remarks have heightened geopolitical tensions, potentially driving oil prices higher and triggering risk-off sentiment in cryptocurrency markets as traders assess the impact of possible conflict.
