Asked by Fox News whether he wanted an agreement with Iran, Trump said 'an agreement with them isn't worth the paper it's written on. We gave them a lot of chances,' and warned that if Iran retaliated for the day's strikes 'they'll be hit much harder.' Later on Truth Social he denied trying to force Iran to the bargaining table and asked, 'When are the Iranian people going to rise up and fight?'

Why it matters

The remarks came hours after Pezeshkian offered to return to the June memorandum and signal that Washington is relying on strikes and economic pressure rather than talks.
