U.S. President Donald Trump has indicated that he is contemplating a limited military strike on Iran, as tensions mount between the two nations over a potential agreement. During a press conference, Trump stated that unfavorable actions would follow if Iran does not finalize a deal within ten days, later extending this ultimatum to fifteen days. His comments raise concerns about escalating military confrontations in the region.

Iran's Foreign Minister, Abbas Araghchi, responded by acknowledging that discussions held in Geneva this week would yield a draft proposal for a contract with Washington. Araghchi emphasized that both sides are working towards a potential agreement and expect to submit drafts soon. This interaction demonstrates Iran's willingness to engage despite Trump’s fiery rhetoric and the looming threat of military action.

Contrary to claims from U.S. officials, Araghchi asserted that Iranian negotiators were not instructed to halt their uranium enrichment program, suggesting that Iran views its nuclear ambitions as non-negotiable elements of their sovereignty. This disagreement further complicates an already tense diplomatic relationship, with both sides at a stalemate but perhaps inching towards potential negotiations in the coming days.
