US President Donald Trump has given a tough message to Iran over the implementation of the recent deal with the US. He said that the US will not hesitate to take necessary action if Tehran does not comply with the terms of the deal. At the same time, he also clarified his position on how the money released for Iran will be spent.

According to NDTV, Trump made these remarks while talking to reporters on Monday (June 22). He said, 'If Iran does not live up to the deal, or if they do not behave properly, then I will do whatever is necessary.

Earlier last week, Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed an interim agreement. More than three months ago, the US and Israel attacked Iran. In response, Iran also attacked Israel and several Gulf countries where the US has military bases.

On Monday, Trump also said that the money on which sanctions on Iran are being lifted was only supposed to be used to buy food from the US.

He said, "That money will eventually come back through buying food. They need food badly. There are 91 million people in the country, but they are not able to feed their own people. So the money we are releasing will ultimately go back to our farmers."

The US and Israeli attacks on Iran and the Israeli military operation in Lebanon have killed thousands of people and displaced millions. The Iran war has also had an impact on the world market. This has created instability in the international market and increased the price of oil in the world market.
