Trump Downplays Chance of Immediate Talks with Iran Amid Rising Red Sea Tensions

US President Donald Trump played down the prospect of immediate talks with Iran as tensions escalated between the two countries, including a recent exchange of strikes, and Houthi militants in Yemen threatened shipping in the Red Sea. Trump's comments came despite growing pressure from lawmakers to restart negotiations on the nuclear deal. The situation remains fluid, with both sides continuing to exchange strikes and threats. Diplomatic efforts may resume if Iran's concerns are addressed.
