Donald Trump's chilling two-word demand leaves world on edge
In a series of bizarre rants the erratic US President threatened he could assassinate Iran's supreme leader - but won't 'at least for now' - he also claimed his country had "complete control of the skies of Iran"'
Donald Trump put the world on edge tonight as Keir Starmer and other world leaders scrambled to de-escalate the Middle East crisis.
In a series of bizarre rants the erratic US President, who abruptly left the G7 summit in Kananaskis, Canada, early on Monday evening, said America was not going to assassinate Iran's supreme leader "at least for now".
â
Writing on his Truth Social platform, Mr Trump said: "We know exactly where the so-called 'Supreme Leader' is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there - We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now.But we don't want missiles shot at civilians, or American soldiers. Our patience is wearing thin."
â
Mr Trump also claimed the US had "complete control of the skies of Iran" and without further explanation he also wrote: "UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER."

The New York Times said Mr Trump was weighing up whether to join the conflict and help Israel destroy an underground nuclear enrichment facility at Fordo.

The PM said: "There is nothing the President said that suggests he's about to get involved in this conflict, on the contrary, the G7 statement was about de-escalation."
He added: "I don't think anything that the President said either here or elsewhere suggests that, the wording of the G7 statement is very clear about de-escalation and de-escalation across the region, and obviously including the situation in Gaza for a ceasefire.
"So I think that the statement really speaks for itself in terms of the shared position of everybody who was here at the G7 and that was a statement that was agreed."
â
On Monday evening the President also traded blows with French President Emmanuel Macron after he said the President was leaving the G7 to negotiate a ceasefire between Israel and Iran.
âPublicity seeking President Emmanuel Macron, of France, mistakenly said that I left the G7 Summit, in Canada, to go back to D.C. to work on a âcease fireâ between Israel and Iran," Mr Trump said.
â
"Wrong!â He has no idea why I am now on my way to Washington, but it certainly has nothing to do with a Cease Fire. Much bigger than that. Whether purposely or not, Emmanuel always gets it wrong. Stay Tuned!â
Today Iran's ambassador to the UK dramatically accused Israel of deliberately targeting civilians - and said the US shares responsibility for air strikes.
â
In an emergency session of Parliament's foreign affairs committee, Seyed Ali Mousavi said civilian infrastructure had been deliberately targeted.
He read a statement which said: "Israel has committed a blatant act of aggression against Iran. Its relentless campaign of attack against all people continues unabated. This is a serious violation of the UN charter and the fundamental principles of international law. This attack crosses all red lines."
He accused Israel of deliberately targeting a "peaceful nuclear facility" and said: "This is a dangerous and illegal act. There's no doubt about it. It poses a real act of releasing radioactive material." And he continued: "Many of the victims are children. In one brutal attack in Tehran, around 20 children were martyred... The number may rise."
â
Mr Mousavi said: "Iran doesn't seek war or escalation, but we will not hesitate to defend our people, our territory and our sovereignty. Today at the G7 summit Mr Starmer also urged allies to ratchet up sanctions on Vladimir Putin's war machine in an attempt to force a ceasefire in Ukraine.
It came as Ukraine's wartime leader President Zelensky appeared in Canada. The new package of 30 sanctions will hit Russia's financial, military and energy sectors, Downing Street said. They include two UK residents - Vladimir Pristoupa and Olech Tkacz - who the Government say had operated "a shadowy network of shell companies ... funnelling over 120 million US dollars of electronics" to Russia.
Mr Starmer said: âThese sanctions strike right at the heart of Putinâs war machine, choking off his ability to continue his barbaric war in Ukraine."
