US President Donald Trump has reinforced his administration’s hardline stance on Iran, stating that if military action becomes necessary, the United States is “loaded and ready to go.” Trump emphasised that the blockade on Tehran will continue alongside diplomatic efforts to resolve the confrontation.

According to reports, a third US aircraft carrier is en route to the Middle East as part of the increased military posturing. Trump’s comments came after discussions with Qatar’s prime minister, during which he stressed that Gulf states support the continuation of military pressure on Iran.

Trump reiterated a core administration position, stating: “They will never have nuclear weapons, this is not negotiable.” The comments reflect an escalation in rhetoric and military deployment even as diplomatic channels remain open.
