In a bold and alarming statement on Monday, former US President Donald Trump called for the evacuation of Iran’s capital, Tehran, as tensions continue to mount between Iran and Israel over nuclear weapons development.
Speaking during a Group of Seven (G7) meeting in Alberta, Canada, Trump tweeted:
“Iran would have signed the 'deal' I told them to sign. What a disaster, and waste of human life. In plain terms, IRAN CAN NOT BE ALLOWED TO HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON. I said it a thousand times! Everyone should leave Tehran immediately!”
This tweet followed his demand that Iran accept a nuclear agreement amid renewed warnings from Israel that military strikes would continue unless Iran halts its nuclear ambitions.
The situation comes at a time of heightened geopolitical risk, with Israeli airstrikes intensifying and fears growing over a broader regional conflict. Trump’s comments have further inflamed the already volatile atmosphere, drawing global attention to Tehran’s vulnerability and the urgency of de-escalation.
There has been no official response from Iranian leadership regarding Trump’s remarks. While Tehran continues to resist Western pressure on its nuclear program, diplomatic efforts remain strained, with talks previously stalled after Israel initiated its most recent military operations.
Trump’s call for the evacuation of Tehran marks a significant escalation in rhetoric from US leadership, highlighting the fragile state of Middle East stability. As Israel intensifies its actions and the global community watches, questions remain over Iran’s next move and whether diplomacy can still prevail.
