Trump Mulls Massive Attack on Iran as Pakistan Seeks to Restart Peace Talks
President Donald Trump told Axios he is considering a 'massive attack' on Iran, bigger than any operation in the ongoing conflict, and is close to making a decision. Simultaneously, Pakistan is reportedly seeking to restart stalled peace talks between the U.S. and Iran, according to Reuters. Iranian Interior Minister Eskandar Momeni visited Islamabad for the second time in 10 days for exploratory discussions, following a diplomatic push initiated by China. Stocks rose and oil prices fell on investor hopes for a diplomatic off-ramp. Trump stated Israel would join the operation if asked but could face retaliation. He also said Iran wants to negotiate but is not ready for a deal, and warned Iran would be held responsible for further Houthi attacks on Red Sea shipping.
