Details: Trump's remarks came as US Vice President JD Vance travelled to Islamabad for talks on a final peace deal with Iran following the agreement on the two-week ceasefire reached on Tuesday.

Quote: "The Iranians don't seem to realise they have no cards, other than a short term extortion of the World by using International Waterways. The only reason they are alive today is to negotiate!"

Background:

  • Earlier, Trump said it would be possible to assess the success of the negotiations with Iran in Pakistan within 24 hours.
  • Before that, he threatened Iran with new attacks if Tehran failed to comply with the terms of the two-week ceasefire agreement.
