Donald Trump has ruled out extending the current ceasefire with Iran, warning that the United States could resume military strikes if negotiations fail in the coming days.
In an interview, Trump made it clear that he sees little value in prolonging the truce, stating that time is limited and Washington holds a strong position in ongoing negotiations.
“I don’t want to extend it… we don’t have that much time,” he said, signaling a hardline approach as diplomatic efforts continue.
The fragile ceasefire, brokered after weeks of intense conflict, is nearing its expiration, with uncertainty surrounding the next phase of talks expected to take place in Pakistan.
U.S. officials have expressed confidence that negotiations will proceed, while Iranian authorities have indicated they are still considering whether to participate.
Despite the ongoing diplomatic efforts, Trump suggested that military action remains a likely outcome if no agreement is reached.
“I expect we could be bombing again… the military is ready,” he added, reinforcing concerns of a potential escalation.
The developments come at a critical moment, as global attention remains focused on whether last-minute diplomacy can prevent a return to conflict in the region.
