Trump on Sunday told Iran to “open the F***in’ Strait” or face “living in hell” in an extraordinary outburst on Truth Social, but continued to insist that negotiations with Tehran were ongoing.
Trump’s 10-day deadline to Iran was set to expire on Monday, before he appeared to present a new deadline of 8pm ET on Tuesday (1am Wednesday BST) in another post on social media.
A source close to ongoing diplomatic efforts told Reuters that both Iran and the US have now received a ‘two-tier proposal’ to end the war, which includes a ceasefire and a more permanent plan to end hostilities.
The framework to end hostilities was apparently put together by Pakistan and exchanged with Iran and the US overnight.
“All elements need to be agreed today,” the source said, adding the initial understanding would be structured as a memorandum of understanding finalised through Pakistan, the sole communication channel in the talks.

Really can’t blame them. They have zero incentive to trust anything the US is offering because the US has repeatedly negotiated in bad faith as a cover for preparing military escalation. When you behave like an honour-less scumbag, at some point people start assuming your word means nothing.
That or announced bullshit to manipulate the stock market. It would be funny if it weren’t so tragic
Only way I see this ending is the US going totally bankrupt and being forced to pull entirely out of the Middle East.
Trump has permenantly destroyed the US’s reputation. Even an impeachment and removal of the next 20 in the line of succession would probably not make Iran trust us.
Doesn’t help that all but a very few US politicians are Netanyahu’s bitches.
“Do what I want or else” is not a “negotiation.” This is what Trump is doing right now:

Everything is a lie, some things are more egregious than that
That is what the liars want you to believe.
