Trump Tells Al Jazeera ‘Not in a Hurry’ for Iran to Return to Talks

Trump said he is not rushing Iran talks as new sanctions target 60 entities and analysts question whether the pressure will work.

  • On Wednesday, President Donald Trump told Al Jazeera journalist Tanya Noury he has "no time schedule" for resuming Iran negotiations, dismissing pressure to accelerate talks.
  • The administration launched "Operation Economic Outcast" on Monday, imposing enhanced sanctions on 60 entities linked to Iran in what officials called an "economic D-Day" to force Tehran back to talks.
  • Sanctions and the ongoing conflict have caused the Iranian rial to fall past 2 million rials to $1, while cooking oil prices surged 177 percent, creating severe hardship for ordinary Iranians.
  • Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent defended not targeting Chinese entities, asking, "Why would I want to blow up the global financial system?" while Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs denounced the sanctions as illegal.
  • This Friday marks six months since the war began, as the 60-day memorandum governing the Strait of Hormuz expired earlier this month, leaving Tehran's nuclear program discussions unresolved.
