US EditionTrump says deal with Iran possible by Monday, Fox News reports
Trump said negotiations are underway and warned of major escalation if Tehran does not quickly reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
- President Donald Trump said on Sunday there is a "good chance" of reaching a deal with Iran by Monday, while warning he would escalate attacks dramatically if Tehran fails to deliver quickly.
- The ultimatum follows a 10-day deadline set by Trump for Iran to reopen the Hormuz Strait, a critical transit point where roughly 20 million barrels of oil passed daily before the war.
- Speaking to Fox News, Trump threatened to "blow everything up" and "take over the oil" if Iran does not move fast enough; he confirmed contact with Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf.
- Tehran did not immediately respond to Trump's claims of a pending agreement. The region remains on alert since a joint US and Israel offensive on Feb. 28 killed more than 1,340 people.
- Failure to secure a deal by Monday could trigger dramatic escalation, as the President has warned of targeting power plants and bridges to force Iran's compliance with the ultimatum.
