US President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that the recently announced framework with Iran remained a work in progress rather than a finalised agreement, indicating that negotiations were still ongoing. He warned that if he was dissatisfied with the final terms, the situation could rapidly deteriorate and potentially return to active military conflict.“The text is not final; it’s a memorandum of understanding. If I don’t like it, we’ll go back to shooting at them, dropping bombs,” he said on the sidelines of the Group of Seven (G7) summit in Evian-les-Bains, France. He made the comments while addressing the media alongside Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sisi.“If they don’t behave, we’ll go right back to dropping bombs right smack in the middle of their head, because they misbehaved for 47 years,” he added.
