Asked by a journalist whether his 'last chance' ultimatum to Iran still stands, President Donald Trump replied that she 'will have to wait and find out,' according to the exchange recorded. The response follows Trump's earlier characterization of the current round as the final one for a deal with Tehran.
President Donald Trump declined to elaborate when asked by a journalist whether his 'last chance' ultimatum to Iran remains in effect. According to the exchange reported Monday evening, Trump responded: 'You will have to wait and find out.'
The remark follows a similar exchange earlier in the evening, in which Trump told reporters 'you will see' when asked what he intends to do with Iran after calling the current round of talks the final one, and confirmed that the US has the ability to escalate (as The Zioneer reported at 22:28 Jerusalem). Together, the comments reinforce the administration's ambiguous stance on the timeline for a diplomatic resolution with Tehran, as the US-Iran nuclear framework continues to take shape amid pressure from both sides.
