Morgan Ortagus, a former Trump envoy, warned that Iran may be using nuclear negotiations to “buy time” while President Trump pauses planned military strikes and extends a fragile ceasefire to allow more room for diplomacy.

Our Reading

As expected, the matter has reached another stage.

Morgan Ortagus warns that Iran may be using nuclear negotiations to “buy time”. The US has paused planned military strikes and extended a fragile ceasefire. Ortagus has experience with Middle East negotiations and argues that the White House has more leverage than previous administrations in dealing with Iran. She remains confident in Trump’s negotiating approach.

The dance of diplomacy continues, with both sides playing their expected roles. Iran is accused of stalling, while the US is accused of using military threats to pressure Tehran during negotiations. The familiar rhythm of accusation and counter-accusation fills the air.
