He argued the U.S. and Iran should effectively \u201cgo silent\u201d for now, while <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >maintaining existing pressure measures<\/a> such as a blockade of Iranian ports and the option of closing the Bab el Mandeb Strait.  <\/p>\n<p>Trump also emphasized the U.S. is not looking to start widespread bombing, even though ther were overnight U.S. strikes on Iranian air defenses and related sites. Following the escalation, Iran fired <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/psaki-biden-seeks-diplomacy-to-constrain-iran-nuclear-program\/\" title=\"Psaki: Biden seeks diplomacy to constrain ... nuclear program\">ballistic missiles<\/a> at U.S. personnel in Kuwait, which the U.S. intercepted. Trump noted he had been considering whether to accept terms to extend the fragile ceasefire, but said the U.S. can wait as Iran is losing money more than three months into the conflict, and he suggested iran is trying to negotiate due to its relative \u201cbetter negotiators\u201d approach.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<article class=\"fn-body\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"4\">Donald Trump<\/a> said he is in no hurry to strike a peace deal after <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/iran\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"100\">Iran<\/a> reportedly suspended indirect talks over <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/israel\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"219\">Israel<\/a>\u2018s latest strikes in <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/lebanon\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"1192\">Lebanon<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think we\u2019ve been talking too much, if you want to know the truth,\u201d Trump told NBC News on Monday. \u201cI think going silent would be very good, and that could be, that could be for a long time.\u201d<\/p>\n<section class=\"explore-more-section\" id=\"wex-recommended-widget\">\n<div class=\"magazine-container single\">\n<h1 class=\"magazine-title mt-2\">Recommended Stories<\/h1>\n<p>             <i class=\"fa-solid fa-play icon\"><\/i>         <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-grid\">\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/4587847\/vance-2026-legwork-could-build-2028-advantage\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Vance\u2019s 2026 \u2018legwork\u2019 could be building a 2028 advantage<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/4588798\/jill-biden-joe-slowing-down-2024\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Jill Biden says Joe was \u2018slowing down\u2019 before abandoning 2024 bid<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<div class=\"explore-card\">                         <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/white-house\/4588398\/trump-medical-history-timeline\/?itm_source=parsely-api\">                             <\/p>\n<div class=\"explore-thumb-wrap\">                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n<h3>Trump\u2019s medical history timeline: COVID, bullets, and more<\/h3>\n<p>                         <\/a>                     <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/section>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The president\u2019s comments come after Iranian state media described Israel\u2019s strikes as a violation of the fragile ceasefire with the United States and suggested that Tehran may expand the conflict to \u201cother fronts.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump added that Iran has not yet communicated it is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-responds-to-james-comey-86-47%e2%80%b2-post-loud-and-clear-washington-examiner\/\" title=\"... responds to James Comey ...86 47\u2032 post: \u2018Loud and clear... - Washington Examiner\">ending peace talks<\/a>, but suggested he was happy to keep the status quo, including a blockade of Iranian ports, in place.
