Donald Trump issued a blunt warning to Iran, claiming it has “no cards” and survives only to negotiate, while accusing Tehran of leveraging global waterways for pressure. He said United States warships are being rearmed and ready to strike if talks in Islamabad fail. As JD Vance leads negotiations, Trump stressed a narrow diplomatic window. Meanwhile, Iran, through Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, insists on preconditions including a ceasefire in Lebanon and release of frozen assets. Deep mistrust and conflicting demands continue to threaten already fragile ceasefire negotiations. (PC: Reuters)
