US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has told Iran to abandon any pursuit of a nuclear weapon “in meaningful and verifiable ways.”
Addressing the media at Pentagon on Friday, April 24, 2026, Hegseth indicated that America would maintain pressure if Iran refuses to abandon its nuclear ambition.
According to him, “All they have to do is abandon a nuclear weapon in meaningful and verifiable ways.”
Hegseth says Iran has “an important choice, a chance to make a deal, a good deal, a wise deal.”
The Secretary of War explained that the United States is “not anxious for a deal,” and warned Tehran could instead face “the regime’s fragile economic state collapse under the unrelenting pressure of American power… a blockade as long as it takes.”
Hegseth says US forces had already seized two Iranian “dark fleet” ships in the Indo-Pacific, adding: “They thought they’d made it out just in time. They did not… we will seize more,” adding that the blockade was expanding globally.
He revealed that “34 total non-Iranian vessels are allowed to transit,” while warning “the clock is not on their side.”
