US President Donald Trump says the United States is willing to wait “a few days” to obtain the “right answers” from Iran regarding a proposed peace deal. Multiple outlets report Trump also signals readiness to escalate if Iran does not agree, saying Washington can move forward with further attacks on Tehran. He frames the situation as being “right on the borderline,” adding that developments could change quickly if talks do not produce progress.
The comments come after a ceasefire and a pause in the US operation known as “Epic Fury,” with reporting noting that talks to end the war have shown little progress. The articles also link the broader political context to rising gasoline prices, which continue to weigh on Trump’s approval ratings.
Iran’s position is described as cautionary, with Iranian Revolutionary Guards warning that any renewed aggression would expand the conflict beyond the region. Trump reiterates that the US aims to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, while still suggesting negotiations could continue briefly before any further action. Overall, the reports depict a short window for negotiations alongside stated military readiness.
