White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller stated that some Iranian officials are ‘desperate’ to make a deal with the Trump administration amid renewed strikes and escalating US pressure on Tehran.
US Pressure on Iran
Miller argued that Tehran had grown accustomed to testing previous US leaders without facing consequences but said Iranian leaders ‘made one vital mistake’ by assuming they could do the same under Trump.
‘One way or another, whether it be through bombing, whether it be through the blockade, whether it be through economic strangulation, whether it be through global pressure brought to bear, any or all of these things, one way or another, this country, this regime, will ultimately be forced to change its ways,’ Miller said.
The Trump administration has resumed strikes against Iran following the collapse of a ceasefire that the White House says Iran violated by attacking commercial shipping.
