Trump threatens to resume bombing campaign if Iran does not ’’behave’’



Reuters - U.S President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that an ​interim accord with Iran was not final, and that ‌he could resume a bombing campaign if he did not like it or if Tehran did not "behave".

"It's a memorandum of understanding. ​And if I don't like it, we'll go ​back to shooting at them, dropping bombs on ⁠their head. If I don't like it, if they ​don't behave, we'll go right back to dropping bombs ​right smack in the middle of their head, OK?" Trump said on the sidelines of a G7 summit in France.

Trump said the Iran memorandum ​of understanding did not include immediate sanctions relief ​for Iran.

Trump heaped praise on the framework agreement that his administration ‌had ⁠negotiated, saying: "That's a very strong deal. Nobody knows what it is, but it's very strong, and most people seem to be very happy."

He said the agreement would ​be a ​boon for ⁠markets.

"There's nothing so smart as the market, and the market loves it beyond anything ​that I've actually seen," he said, adding: "The ​alternative ⁠would be a worldwide depression."

Oil prices were near a three-month low on Wednesday, with Trump predicting further decreases : "I think ⁠oil prices ​might get lower than where ​they were before the war."
