White House Says Trump Remains Pleased with Pressure on Iran, No Hard Deadline Set
The White House stated on Wednesday that President Donald Trump remains satisfied with the ongoing economic pressure campaign directed at Iran and has not established a firm deadline for Tehran’s response. Speaking at a press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the administration’s position. “He is pleased with this, while we await their response and will see,” she told reporters.
Leavitt further clarified that President Trump has not provided Iran with a specific timeframe for submitting a proposal to resume diplomatic negotiations. Earlier reports indicated that Trump was considering a limited timeframe for Iran to produce a unified proposal. However, the White House clarified that the ultimate timeline will be determined by the “Supreme Commander,” a reference to Trump himself.
The White House emphasized that no hard deadline has been set, and the administration is currently assessing Iran’s reaction to the current pressure. This statement comes after reports circulating earlier in the day regarding a potential timeframe for a response.
