Trump May Order Strikes on Iran After Midterms as Talks Stall

masrawy.com (Arabic) —

Negotiations between the US and Iran have stalled, with American officials believing President Donald Trump may order a return to broad strikes and combat operations after the midterm elections. Qatari mediators failed to achieve a diplomatic breakthrough this week, as neither side showed willingness to retreat from its position. Trump is reportedly ready to offer sanctions relief and release frozen funds in exchange for concrete steps to reduce Iran's nuclear program. Iran insists on the US returning to a June memorandum of understanding before considering nuclear concessions. Iranian security official Mohsen Rezaei said Trump is "stuck in a swamp where he can neither negotiate nor fight."
