Trump's Warning to Iran: A New Chapter in Nuclear Negotiations

In a recent interview, former U.S. President Donald Trump issued a stark warning to Iran, stating that "there will be bombing" if Tehran fails to reach a nuclear agreement with Washington. This statement comes amidst heightened tensions between the two nations over Iran's nuclear program.
