Former U.S. President Donald J. Trump has issued a stark warning via his official Truth Social account, calling for the immediate evacuation of Tehran, Iran’s capital, amid rising tensions and fears over Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
In a strongly worded post, Trump reiterated his long-standing position on Iran’s nuclear program, stating:
“Iran should have signed the ‘deal’ I told them to sign. What a shame and waste human life. Simply stated, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. I said it over and over ! Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran.”
Trump did not provide details about any imminent threat or military action but emphasized the urgency of the situation by urging all individuals to *evacuate Tehran without delay*.
Context of the Statement
Trump’s comments come at a time of heightened military activity in the Middle East. In recent days, Israel has carried out strikes targeting Iranian military and nuclear infrastructure, and Iranian officials have vowed retaliation. The region remains on edge, with both civilian populations and foreign nationals expressing concern over potential escalation.
Although no official statements have been released by the current U.S. administration regarding the evacuation of Tehran, Trump’s post has already begun circulating widely among political analysts and media outlets, further fueling speculation about the possibility of a broader conflict.
International Reactions
There has been no immediate response from Iranian officials regarding Trump’s statement. Meanwhile, some Western diplomats have privately expressed concern that such remarks — especially from a former president — could heighten fears and lead to panic among civilians.
