—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: President Trump has formally instructed his administration to cease all diplomatic talks with Iran, instead shifting to a maximum economic pressure campaign to convince Iran to capitulate – CNN

@Middle_East_Spectator

NOTE: President Trump has adopted a ‘maximum pressure’ campaign against Iran since his withdrawal from the JCPOA in 2018, and it has not succeeded, nor will it succeed now.

In essence, this is Trump admitting defeat and unilaterally reverting to the status-quo, but Iran will not allow this.

In the coming days and weeks, Iran will be escalating and dictating the pace, putting pressure on the U.S. to force it to make necessary concessions.
