Trump tells UN he may sign deal with Iran after midterms, or ‘annihilate’ it instead

US President Donald Trump dedicated a significant portion of his 38-minute address at the UN General Assembly to Iran. Touting his administration's accomplishments against what he described as the 'bully of the Middle East' during the recent war, Trump stated that he might sign a deal with Iran following the midterm elections, or alternatively, choose to 'annihilate' it. Notably, the president avoided almost any mention of Israel throughout his speech. His remarks underscore the ongoing focus of his foreign policy regarding the regime currently ruling Iran.
