Regional Mediators Push for Temporary Ceasefire Amid US-Iran War Talks
Sources involved in the talks noted that the likelihood of reaching even a partial agreement within the next 48 hours remains low. Nonetheless, officials consider the discussions a last opportunity to prevent a major escalation, which could include strikes on Iranian civilian infrastructure and retaliatory attacks on oil and water facilities in Gulf countries.
US President Donald Trump’s initial 10-day deadline for Iran was set to expire Monday evening. On Sunday, he extended the deadline by 20 hours, moving the cutoff to 8 pm ET Tuesday, and told reporters that a deal is possible before then.
“There’s a good chance, but if they don’t agree, I am blowing up everything over there,” Trump said, warning of attacks on Iranian infrastructure if no agreement is reached.
