On the brink of escalating tensions, President Donald Trump expressed discontent with Iran's stance, yet indicated a willingness to engage in more diplomatic discussions regarding Tehran's nuclear endeavors. Speaking to reporters ahead of his Texas visit, Trump voiced hopes for a deal while firmly opposing the prospect of Iran having nuclear weapons.

As negotiations over Iran's nuclear ambitions persisted, the U.S. military presence in the region witnessed a significant buildup. Despite the looming forces, Trump maintained a preference for non-military resolutions, though he acknowledged that circumstances might occasionally necessitate military intervention.

Playing a pivotal role in mediation, Oman dispatched its foreign minister to Washington. Engaging in crucial dialogues with U.S. Vice President JD Vance, the discussions aimed at finding a peaceful resolution to the ongoing nuclear dispute, as reported by sources close to the negotiations.
