US President Donald Trump has declared that the US military will remain in the Middle East and has warned that if a deal is not reached with Iran, then "the shooting will start, bigger, better and harder than ever before."
In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the US military presence was "appropriate and necessary for the pursuit and lethal destruction of an enemy that has already been significantly weakened," reports SkyNews.
He concluded the message by claiming that the US is "vigorously preparing" and "eagerly awaiting" its next "invasion."
