Trump weighs major escalation against Iran as talks stall

President Trump is weighing renewed military action against Iran, including strikes and potentially restarting the Project Freedom mission to force concessions over Tehran’s nuclear program, as negotiations appear to be collapsing. Advisers are divided on whether to pursue more attacks or diplomacy, and a final escalation decision isn’t expected before Trump’s China trip, even as Iran demands sanctions relief and recognition of its sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.
