Kamyar Behrang, a member of Iran International’s editorial team, referring to remarks by Donald Trump about the ceasefire being a waste of time and the failure of negotiations, said that Trump and Netanyahu have entered a stage in which negotiating with the Islamic Republic no longer has the same meaning for them, and ending the Islamic Republic’s nuclear crisis has become the main issue.

According to him, the United States is seeking to reduce the military costs of the war, and the Islamic Republic can no longer, as in the past, use the threat of closing the Strait of Hormuz to reduce pressure.
