In a fiery address from the stage in Riyadh — with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman seated beside him — U.S. President Donald Trump issued a stern ultimatum to Iran. Calling Iran "the most destructive force" in the Middle East, Trump warned Tehran to choose between diplomacy and devastation. In a moment loaded with symbolism and power politics, Trump made it clear: the U.S. will not tolerate a nuclear-armed Iran. This explosive moment marked a turning point in U.S.-Middle East relations and sent shockwaves through the global geopolitical landscape.

00:00I want to make a deal with Iran. If I can make a deal with Iran, I'll be very happy if we're going
00:05to make your region and the world a safer place. But if Iran's leadership rejects this olive branch
00:11and continues to attack their neighbors, then we will have no choice but to inflict
00:16massive maximum pressure, drive Iranian oil exports to zero, like I did before.
00:24If you know that, they were a virtually bankrupt country because of what I did. They had no money
00:32for terror. They had no money for Hamas or Hezbollah and take all action required to stop the regime
00:39from ever having a nuclear weapon. Iran will never have a nuclear weapon of the Middle East. Can you
00:47imagine all of this misery and so much more was entirely avoidable? Absolutely avoidable. And
00:56Mohammed knew that. He knew that. Smart people knew that. If only the Iranian regime had focused on
01:02building their nation up instead of tearing the region down. Yet I'm here today not merely to
01:09condemn the past chaos of Iran's leaders, but to offer them a new path and a much better path toward
01:16a far better and more hopeful future. As I've shown repeatedly, I am willing to end past conflicts and
01:24forge new partnerships for a better and more stable world, even if our differences may be very profound,
01:30which obviously they are in the case of Iran. I have never believed in having permanent enemies.
01:37I am different than a lot of people think. I don't like permanent enemies, but sometimes
01:43you need enemies to do the job and you have to do it right. Enemies get you motivated. In fact,
01:50some of the closest friends of the United States of America are nations we fought wars against
01:56in generations past. And now they're our friends and our allies. I want to make a deal with Iran.
02:03If I can make a deal with Iran, I'll be very happy if we're going to make your region and the world
02:09a safer place. But if Iran's leadership rejects this olive branch and continues to attack their
02:15neighbors, then we will have no choice but to inflict massive maximum pressure, drive Iranian oil exports
02:24to zero like I did before. If you know that they were a virtually bankrupt country because of what I did.
02:33They had no money for terror. They had no money for Hamas or Hezbollah and take all action required to
02:40stop the regime from ever having a nuclear weapon. Iran will never have a nuclear weapon.
02:47But with that said, Iran can have a much brighter future, but will never allow America and its allies
03:01to be threatened with terrorism or nuclear attack. The choice is theirs to make. We really want them
03:08to be a successful country. We want them to be a wonderful, safe, great country. But they cannot have
03:14a nuclear weapon. This is an offer that will not last forever. The time is right now for them to
03:22choose. Right now, we don't have a lot of time to wait. Things are happening at a very fast pace.
03:29Happening right here. They're happening at a very fast pace. So they have to make their move right now.
03:36One way or the other, make your move. As I said in my inaugural address, my greatest hope
03:41is to be a peacemaker and to be a unifier. I don't like war. We have the greatest military,
03:49by the way, in the history of the world. I rebuilt our military in my first four years
03:54and rebuilt it into the most powerful military.
