After G7 Leaders Praise U.S.-Iran Deal, Trump Threatens Iran Again

In remarks to reporters, Mr. Trump praised the agreement as a “very strong deal” that markets had welcomed, but then pivoted to escalatory language. “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,” he said.

Hours earlier, the G7 leaders issued a joint statement praising Mr. Trump’s “strong leadership” in securing the deal with Iran, as they gathered on Wednesday for the second full day of the summit in Évian-les-Bains, France.

In his remarks later, Mr. Trump appeared to say that no one knows what the deal, the terms of which have not been published, entails. “Nobody knows what it is, but it’s very strong. Most people seem to be very happy,” he said, adding: “Who’s really happy is the market.”
