JAKARTA - US President Donald Trump emphasized that preventing Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons is more important than the threat of a global economic depression.
"Nuclear weapons are more important than depression. Depression is very bad. Nuclear weapons will cause depression much faster," Trump told reporters when asked about the possible global economic consequences of further military conflict with Iran.
Trump said that if Iran did not comply with the provisions of the memorandum that had been signed, the US would do what it had to do.
Last week, Iran and the US signed an online memorandum that regulates the end of the military conflict that began on February 28.
The document also sets a deadline for the US to lift its naval blockade of Iranian ports and for Iran to restore navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.
Talks between Iran and the US, with Pakistani and Qatari mediators, were held at the Burgenstock resort, Switzerland, on June 21.
