Tehran wants to make a deal “very badly,” the US president has claimed The conflict between the US and Iran is close to being settled, President Donald Trump has claimed, adding that the second round of peace talks between the two sides could take place in the next few days. The US president gave interviews to several outlets on Tuesday, where he detailed Washington’s stance on the negotiations with Tehran. Washington’s delegation, led by Vice President J.D. Vance , met with Iranian diplomats in Islamabad, Pakistan over the weekend. The discussions, however, did not result in any breakthroughs. The US reacted by announcing a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz for Iran-linked vessels. Tehran said the negotiations had failed because of Washington’s “unrealistic demands.” The conflict, which started with a US-Israeli attack on Iran on February 28, is “very close to being over,” Trump told FOX Business anchor Maria Bartiromo. However, he again threatened Tehran with a resumption of US...

Majorities should dictate the bloc’s common foreign policy, the European Commission president has insisted The time has come for the EU to remove individual member states’ veto power on the bloc’s foreign policy decisions, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has insisted. Von der Leyen issued the call less than 24 hours after her long-time opponent, former Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, lost power in a general election to the pro-EU Tisza party led by Peter Magyar. Orban, who is a staunch critic of Brussels, used the unanimity requirement to stall numerous EU policies during his time in office. In recent months, Budapest has been vetoing the bloc’s €90 billion ($105 billion) emergency loan for Ukraine, citing Kiev’s reluctance to resume supply of Russian oil to Hungary via the Druzhba pipeline. Von der Leyen insisted on Monday that “moving to qualified majority voting in foreign policy is an important way to avoid systemic blockages, as we have seen in the pa...

Tehran remains ready to negotiate in good faith, its consul general in Mumbai, Saeid Reza Mosayeb Motlagh, has told RT India A breach of trust by the US led to the collapse of the Islamabad talks to end the Middle East conflict, a top Iranian diplomat has told RT India. Washington changed its approach and attempted to dictate its terms, saying that Iran has no right to uranium enrichment, Tehran’s consul general in Mumbai, Saeid Reza Mosayeb Motlagh, said in an interview on Tuesday. Iran’s initial ten-point proposal, which the US had accepted as the basis of talks, included its peaceful nuclear rights, but Washington tried to impose its own terms, Motlagh said. “If the intention was for the US to dictate and Iran to comply, then what was the point of all these wars and the surrounding hardships?” the diplomat asked. This has led to “a deep mistrust by the Islamic Republic of Iran toward the United States,” he said, adding that Tehran “remains ready to negotiate… provided the dis...

The billionaire weighed in on Viktor Orban’s defeat in the parliamentary election The pro-EU Tisza party’s victory over Prime Minister Viktor Orban in the Hungarian election means that the country has essentially been taken over by the Soros network, Elon Musk has said. In a post on X on Monday, Musk lashed out at Alexander Soros — the son of billionaire George Soros and chair of the Board of Directors of the Open Society Foundations (OSF) – who celebrated Orban’s fall as “a resounding rejection of entrenched corruption and foreign interference.” “Soros Organization has taken over Hungary,” the SpaceX and Tesla owner said. In a separate post, Musk responded to a post by an X user who listed figures who cheered the result – among them, former US President Barack Obama, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky, and various EU officials – and wrote: “This should tell you everything.” Musk replied with a “100%” emoji.
