US Iran Ceasefire | Donald Trump Talks Tough, Iran Pushes Back On 'Coercion'
Donald Trump is combining optimism about a potential deal with warnings of military action, signalling a strategy of pressure diplomacy toward Iran. While Washington believes sustained pressure including naval measures can force Tehran to negotiate, Iran’s leadership is pushing back. Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has made it clear that no final decision has been taken on talks and that negotiations cannot happen under coercion. This reflects a deeper divide within Iran between those favouring diplomacy and those viewing it as capitulation.
