U.S. President Donald Trump has announced that before taking any military action against Iran, he will give Tehran “one final chance” to reach an agreement. Speaking at the White House on Monday, Trump said he hopes diplomacy will succeed, but if it fails, previously planned options will remain on the table.
Trump also claimed that Iranian officials had contacted him and requested that he prevent a military strike, though he did not provide any details. He added that he faces “no time limit” in making a decision regarding Iran.
The remarks come amid escalating tensions between Washington and Tehran. While Trump has spoken of continued contacts and the possibility of an agreement, Iranian officials have insisted that no negotiations with the United States are underway, stating that their only ongoing discussions with Oman concern a proposal related to the Strait of Hormuz.
