Trump Pauses Military Strikes, Warns of Action if Iran Talks FailPreviousNext

US President Donald Trump has paused planned military strikes against Iran to allow ongoing diplomatic talks another chance, focusing on reopening the Strait of Hormuz and reviving nuclear negotiations. Trump warned that if talks fail, the US is prepared to resume "very strong military action," emphasizing a limited window for diplomacy. The pause followed requests from mediating countries and regional governments. Trump expressed belief that Iran seeks an agreement, while stressing that military options remain on the table if negotiations do not succeed.
