In an exclusive interview with Fox News, U.S. President Donald Trump issued a stark warning regarding Iran’s oil sector, stating that the country’s energy infrastructure is on the verge of a physical breakdown, with a critical window of approximately three days remaining.

According to the President, the cumulative impact of the ongoing maritime blockade and the cessation of crude oil exports has pushed Iran's oil system to a breaking point. "In three days, that system is just going to explode," Trump cautioned, emphasizing that the United States maintains significant leverage in any potential negotiations.

"We have all the cards," he added.

Furthermore, President Trump signaled a shift in diplomatic protocol, stating that the U.S. will no longer dispatch delegations to Pakistan for talks with Tehran. He asserted that if Iranian officials wish to engage in discussions, they must contact Washington directly or travel to the United States.

The President's remarks come in the wake of a security breach at the Washington Hilton during the White House Correspondents' Association dinner. A 31-year-old teacher from California, identified as Cole Allen, reportedly attempted to bypass a Secret Service checkpoint, leading to an exchange of gunfire.

Authorities confirmed that between five and eight shots were fired. While one Secret Service agent was wounded, no fatalities were reported. President Trump, the First Lady, and other high-ranking attendees were immediately evacuated from the premises.

In a subsequent press conference, the President suggested he may have been the primary target. However, investigators revealed that Allen admitted to plotting an assassination attempt against members of the administration, while clarifying that the President himself was not his specific objective at the time of the incident.
