The Daily Beast • • nation
Key Points:
- President Donald Trump declared the shaky peace deal with Iran "over" following attacks by Iran on oil tankers and U.S. military sites, labeling Iranian leaders as "sick" and "vicious" people.
- Despite his harsh rhetoric, Trump allowed his special envoy Steve Witkoff and son-in-law Jared Kushner to continue negotiations but expressed skepticism about their effectiveness, calling dealings with Iran a "waste of time."
- The U.S. Central Command launched a series of powerful strikes against Iranian targets, marking the largest exchange of fire since the ceasefire memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed in June.
- The June MOU, criticized for conceding too much to Iran without securing firm commitments on nuclear disarmament, included reopening the Strait of Hormuz and a $300 billion fund to help rebuild Iran under certain conditions.
- NATO chief Mark Rutte supported the U.S. retaliation, stating it was necessary due to Iran's violations of the ceasefire agreement.
