Trump: Iran talks not satisfactory yet, signals potential escalation
TL;DR
President Trump said the US isn’t satisfied with the current Iran deal and warned Washington could resume strikes if no agreement is reached, even as Iran signaled progress but cautioned a deal isn’t imminent. Iran allegedly circulated a draft calling for reopening the Strait of Hormuz and US withdrawal, a claim the White House dismissed as fabrication. Secretary of State Rubio said there has been some progress, but no specifics were disclosed as talks continue amid a volatile regional context and recent U.S. strikes; BBC reportedly has not verified the draft.
