President Trump announced that he believes a preliminary deal with Iran is finished after ordering US airstrikes on Iranian targets. Speaking in Turkey, Trump stated that he no longer wants to continue negotiations with Iran, calling the talks a waste of time.
Trump’s comments came after the US carried out strikes on more than 80 Iranian targets following attacks on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz. The agreement had opened a 60-day window for talks over Iran’s nuclear program, sanctions relief, and reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
