Trump Claims Time Isn’t His Enemy While Negotiating With Iran In Pakistan
KEY POINTS
- •President Tump posted multiple statements on Truth Social Monday denying pressure on his Iran deal efforts and vowing a process better than Obama’s 2015 agreement.
- •U.S. and Iranian negotiators met in Pakistan as the ceasefire deadline approached Tuesday night amid Tehran’s repeated blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
- •Meanwhile, U.S. forces seized an Iranian cargo ship Sunday attempting to bypass a naval blockade, contributing to ongoing high oil prices linked to Washington-Tehran tensions.
On Monday, President Tump unleashed a Truth Social tirade defending his cool-no-pressure stance on a nuclear deal with Iran, despite looming ceasefire deadlines. He insisted Israel never twisted his arm into war after Oct. 7th, and promised a deal 'FAR BETTER' than Obama's 2015 JCPOA, which he called a 'guaranteed Road to a Nuclear Weapon.' While Tehran shutdown the globally crucial Strait of Hormuz again, and American forces played pirate by seizing an Iranian ship dodging a U.S. naval blockade in the Gulf of Oman, Trump flexed by claiming 'Time is not my adversary,' leaving us all to hope courage and foresight come with Truth Social account verification.
