In his General Assembly address, Trump said he had "a big decision to make": a deal letting Iran rebuild, or to "annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly," and predicted a deal "right after the election" on Nov. 3. Iran's army general staff and the IRGC's Khatam al-Anbiya headquarters called the threats "domestic propaganda."

Why it matters

The speech tied any settlement to the US midterms while keeping renewed strikes explicitly on the table, hours before US and Iranian envoys held talks in New York.
