agi.it (Italian) —

President Donald Trump warned that the US "could soon launch Operation Epic Fury 2" against Iran, urging Iranian officials to accept American demands to end the conflict, while doubting they would comply. US Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack said an attack could "absolutely" occur this weekend, though he emphasized Trump remains open to a diplomatic deal, with nuclear proliferation issues described as "details" in ongoing negotiations. Barrack stated US goals include asset release, sanctions relief, ending armed clashes, and aid to Israel, ruling out regime change. Meanwhile, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi held talks with Russia's Sergey Lavrov, with further meetings planned in Moscow.
