Trump announces new talks with Tehran, rejects ceasefire, hints at tougher steps

US President Trump announced another round of negotiations with Iran, reversing his earlier rejection of a ceasefire offer, claiming Tehran has 'overbid.' He did not rule out tougher measures, signaling a potential escalation in diplomatic and coercive pressure. The shift suggests a fluid negotiation stance, with uncertainty over whether talks will yield progress or precede increased sanctions or military posturing.
