The Washington Examiner reports that President Donald Trump criticized Iran and NATO amid renewed U.S.-Iran talks, claiming Iranian negotiators are \u201cbegging\u201d for a deal while NATO dithers.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Trump said Iran publicly rejected the U.S. proposal but privately has shown more openness, and he insisted they must accept his terms to end the war before it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; He announced a five-day pause on strikes against Iranian <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-releases-list-of-president-trumps-accomplishments-and-it-is-historic\/\" title=\"White House Releases List of President Trump\u2019s Accomplishments \u2013  And It Is Historic!\">energy infrastructure<\/a>, contingent on the ongoing meetings and discussions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Trump criticized NATO for not backing the U.S.-Israel effort to secure the Strait of Hormuz, arguing the alliance has done little to help despite the strategic importance of the waterway.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The disruption of Hormuz has contributed to the world\u2019s largest energy-market upheaval, pushing oil prices higher, though prices have softened somewhat since negotiations began.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; BlackRock CEO Larry Fink warned that the war and energy disruptions could precipitate a steep global recession if oil and trade are unsettled.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The piece also notes Trump\u2019s claims that U.S. officials Vance and Rubio are involved in the Iran talks and references his posts on Truth Social calling for seriousness from Iran.<\/p>\n<p>Notes:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211;
