Trump signals Iran conflict may end soon; Tehran rejects talks

Описание: 미•이스라엘, 중동 갈등 온도차… 트럼프 조기 종료 언급에 이란 “협상 없다”

We begin in the Middle East, where the U.S. and Israel continue their operations against Iran.
President Donald Trump says the conflict could end soon.
But Tehran rejects the idea of renewed talks with Washington, as signs of differences also emerge between the U.S. and Israel.

Around ten days after the U.S. and Israel launched operations against Iran, signs of a slight rift are emerging between the two countries.
U.S. President Donald Trump said Monday the campaign may be coming to an end soon, contrasting with earlier remarks made with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that it could last for weeks, if not months.

"I think soon and very soon. Look, everything they have is gone, including their leadership."

The shift comes as concerns grow in Washington over rising oil prices, especially after Israeli strikes on the Iranian military's fuel depots over the weekend.
Even Senator Lindsey Graham, a hawkish Republican ally of Trump, urged Israel on social media to be cautious about its targets.

Trump's message about ending the conflict soon was immediately met with a backlash from Iran.
An official from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it was Iran and not the U.S. that would decide when the conflict ends, warning that Tehran wouldn't allow even a single liter of oil to be exported from the region if attacks continue.
Iran also signaled that further negotiations with the U.S. are no longer on the table.

"In the negotiation, you know, it said itself that we had made big progress. Still, they decided to attack us. So I don't think, you know, talking to the Americans anymore would be, you know, on our agenda anymore."

Trump also warned on social media that the U.S. would hit Iran "twenty times harder" if it halted oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, though he said he hopes that will not happen.
With the conflict still ongoing, some countries are showing a willingness to mediate, including Russia, Iran's ally, as was disclosed by Trump, who said this was discussed in a phone call with his Russian counterpart.
An Iranian deputy foreign minister also confirmed that several countries, including Russia, China and France, have called for a ceasefire.

With many countries signaling interest in mediation, attention is on whether diplomatic efforts could move the conflict toward negotiations.
