Iran and the United States are once again exchanging sharp warnings as tensions over stalled negotiations continue to rise. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said trust remains the biggest obstacle in talks with Washington and suggested China could help ease tensions diplomatically. Tehran also warned it remains prepared for direct conflict if negotiations fail. The remarks came after renewed focus on Donald Trump’s China visit and growing speculation over Beijing’s role in the Iran-US standoff. Iran further claimed the ongoing crisis and disruption around the Strait of Hormuz are increasing economic pressure on American households through rising energy and financial costs.
