Trump defends US interventions abroad ahead of 'big decision' on Iran: 'Settling years of unfinished business'

At the UN General Assembly in New York City on Tuesday morning, President Donald Trump delivered a speech on America's role in global leadership.

President Donald Trump issued a stern warning Tuesday for Iran to make a deal soon or face severe consequences for its pursuit of a nuclear weapon.

"I have a big decision to make: Will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild and create a far greater country  than it ever was before – maybe one of the greatest in the Middle East or even the world?" Trump told the United Nations General Assembly in his morning address.

"Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic and do it quickly, never giving them a chance to kill and destroy people and countries again. Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival and no hope of future greatness or generations?"
