Trump says no talks scheduled with Iran, shifts to pressure strategy

President Trump stated there are currently no talks or contacts with Iran, nor are any scheduled, marking a shift from his previous position. CNN reports Trump has decided to change policy toward Iran, abandoning pursuit of a quick agreement in favor of sustained economic, financial, and military pressure until Iran becomes more flexible. The U.S. Treasury has indicated additional significant sanctions will be announced this week. The approach aims to maintain economic pressure while ensuring oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz continues.
