Trump Announces Iran Deal Will Be Signed 'Tonight' on Fox News, Threatens Devastating Strikes

President Trump told Fox News reporter Maria Bartiromo that a deal with Iran would be signed 'tonight' in Islamabad, Pakistan, despite uncertainty over Iran's participation in the talks. Trump accompanied his announcement with severe threats, stating he would 'blow up every power station and every bridge in Iran' if a deal was not reached and signed immediately. The announcement came as a US delegation led by Vice President JD Vance had departed for Pakistan for planned discussions, though Iran's participation remained unconfirmed. Trump also indicated willingness to meet directly with Iranian leadership if progress was made in negotiations. The explicit threats to destroy civilian infrastructure raised concerns about potential violations of international humanitarian law.

"A deal with Iran will be signed tonight. If the talks fail, no one can predict what the next step will be. [I will] blow up every power station and every bridge in Iran." — Statement made during Fox News interview with Maria Bartiromo regarding ongoing diplomatic negotiations with Iran in Pakistan
