US President Donald Trump has rejected extending the ceasefire with Iran and signaled readiness to resume military action as the 14-day truce approaches its deadline.
Trump stated on Tuesday that he expects to resume bombing Iran if a deal is not reached before the ceasefire ends Wednesday evening Washington time, adding it is “highly unlikely” he would extend it without an agreement.
He emphasized that the US military is “raring to go” and warned that “lots of bombs” would “start going off” if negotiations fail before the deadline.
Vice President JD Vance and top US officials were expected to depart for Islamabad on Tuesday for a potential second round of talks, but the trip was placed on hold after Iran failed to respond to American negotiating positions, according to a US official cited by The New York Times.
