Trump says world has 10 days to see if Iran strikes deal or US takes 'a step further'
- President Donald Trump is weighing a decision this weekend as strikes could come as early as this weekend, but he has not yet authorised military action.
- On Tuesday in Geneva, negotiators agreed to work on draft texts and `guiding principles`, Iranian officials said, while White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt noted only `a little bit of progress` and that sides remain `still very far apart on some issues`.
- Washington has positioned 13 US warships in the Middle East, including the USS Abraham Lincoln, while the USS Gerald R. Ford is moving toward the region with three destroyers and deployed fighter jets plus KC-135 refuelling tankers and E3 Sentry surveillance planes.
- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said coordination is close after last week’s White House visit, and analysts say a limited strike may not cause prolonged disruption as Iran is expected to retaliate.
- After strikes last June that derailed talks, the administration remains posture-ready as political pressure and warnings after Iran's crackdown earlier this year shape Washington's stance.
