However, he stressed that the proposed terms were still unacceptable to Washington.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1269\" data-end=\"1421\">The US president did not provide full details of the conditions. But he said any possible agreement would require Iran to give up its nuclear ambitions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1423\" data-end=\"1595\">Trump also said the United States had already carried out major strikes on Kharg Island. He claimed the attacks had destroyed many facilities linked to Iranian oil exports.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1597\" data-end=\"1781\">According to Trump, additional strikes could still happen if tensions continue.
