Trump says there will either be a deal with Iran or US will 'finish the job'
Context
By Bo Erickson, Steve Holland and Elwely Elwelly WASHINGTON, July 6 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Monday the United States would either reach a deal with Iran or "finish the job," renewing his threat of military action as Tehran projects defiance following the funeral of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Indirect U.S.-Iran talks ended last week without any public sign of headway toward a lasting peace, despite a 60-day ceasefire intended to create space for diplomacy following the U.S. and Israeli strikes that triggered the conflict.
What it means
Trump's 'deal or finish the job' ultimatum is a continuation of the ongoing US-Iran conflict that delfee has already covered. The prior signals already called Brent crude and Gold higher on this same risk dynamic. This headline restates known positions — talks stalled, military threat remains on the table — without introducing a new actor, a genuine escalation, or a surprise relative to what markets have already priced in.
