President Donald Trump said the U.S. agreed to continue talks with Iran, even though he said the ceasefire is finished.
Speaking to reporters while in Turkey at a NATO summit, Trump said the ceasefire between Washington and Tehran is “over” and that he does not want to keep dealing with Iran. He added that negotiations can still continue, but he described them as a “waste of time,” saying Iran’s leaders are not acting in good faith.
His comments came shortly after the U.S. carried out another round of strikes on Iran in response to attacks on commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian officials, in turn, said they responded with strikes targeting locations including Bahrain and Kuwait, underscoring how quickly fighting resumed even as diplomacy continued.
While Trump left open the possibility that talks might proceed, the statement creates new uncertainty about whether a diplomatic process can produce an end to hostilities as military actions continue.
