According to a report by BBC on Saturday, April 25, 2026, The United States has reiterated that it is under no immediate pressure to conclude a negotiated settlement to end the ongoing conflict involving Iran, with senior officials downplaying suggestions of urgency in reaching a diplomatic agreement.
Over the past week, Washington has repeatedly signalled that it is not rushing toward a deal, emphasizing that any outcome must meet its strategic conditions.
Speaking to Reuters in a phone interview on Friday, President Donald Trump said Iran was “making an offer and we’ll have to see,” adding that he did not yet know the details of the proposal. His comments followed earlier reports attributed to Fox News indicating that he felt “no time pressure” to end the conflict and would only accept what he described as a “good deal.”
The position has been reinforced by US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth, who stated: “we have all the time in the world and we’re not anxious for a deal.” In a separate remark, US military leadership indicated readiness for renewed operations if the ceasefire collapses, saying forces were “postured and prepared” for further action.
Meanwhile, Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz said Israel is “waiting for the green light from the US” to “complete the elimination of the Khamenei dynasty,” a statement made in the context of ongoing regional hostilities.
The remarks come amid heightened diplomatic and military tensions in the region, with both Washington and its allies maintaining a firm stance while signaling preparedness for further escalation should negotiations fail to progress.
Officials across the involved parties continue to exchange messages through indirect channels, even as public statements reflect divergent expectations over the timeline and terms for any potential resolution to the conflict.
Favor As Higher Power?
(The hidden truth)
Some positions in life cannot be held or retained for long if you are not favored. Favor is higher power. You are not the only one desiring, deserving, connected, powerful or qualified. Some positions in life, opportunities, success, achievements, triumphs, selection, approvals, power and position, elevation, patronage, etc, are mainly through favor. Favor is silent, spiritual and higher power. For spiritual guidance, other solutions, call/Whatsapp Dr J.A. Faros on 07030514063. With God, all are possible.
