President Donald Trump warned Iran on Wednesday that the United States could resume large-scale military strikes unless Tehran agrees to a new deal, speaking at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy commencement in New London, Connecticut. Behind protective glass, Trump said Iran’s navy and air force were “gone” after Operation Epic Fury, the joint U.S.-Israeli bombing campaign that began on February 28, 2026, and paused under a fragile April ceasefire. He framed the conflict as an unfinished “either-or” moment, vowing Iran would not obtain a nuclear weapon. The speech came amid stalled peace negotiations, high oil prices, and mounting domestic political pressure ahead of November midterms.
