On the other side Iran\u2019s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has said Tehran will closely watch US actions before deciding its next steps, stressing that any move will be guided by national interests and security.<\/p>\n

According to Iranian state media, Araghchi made the remarks during talks with his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov, as tensions with Washington remain high.<\/p>\n

He said Iran would \u201cmonitor US behavior and take the appropriate decision to protect its interests and national security.\u201d<\/p>\n

The comments come amid ongoing friction over US military actions and stalled negotiations, with Tehran repeatedly warning it will respond to any escalation.<\/p>\n

Earlier on Monday, President Masoud Pezeshkian dismissed US threats as pressure tactics, stating that Iran will not yield to coercion, even as Washington continued issuing both military and diplomatic ultimatums.<\/p>\n

The spokesperson for the Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters also denounced the US Navy\u2019s actions as a criminal operation, saying it breached the ceasefire and amounted to maritime piracy by opening fire on an Iranian merchant vessel in the Sea of Oman.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

Trump Warns Iran of \u2018Problems Like They\u2019ve Never Seen\u2019 If No Nuclear Deal Reached<\/strong><\/p>\n

US President Donald Trump has warned Iran that it must negotiate or face unprecedented problems, stressing that Tehran will not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n

In a phone interview on the conservative radio programme The John Fredericks Show, Trump said: \u201cWell, they\u2019re going to negotiate, and if they don\u2019t, they\u2019re going to see problems like they\u2019ve never seen before.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cHopefully they\u2019ll make a fair deal and they\u2019ll build their country back up, but when they do it they will not have a nuclear weapon. They\u2019ll have no access to, no chance of having a nuclear weapon. And we can\u2019t allow that to happen. That could be the destruction of the world, and we\u2019re not going to let that happen.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking to Bloomberg in a phone interview, he noted that the truce previously due to expire on April 21 at 8pm ET\u00a0 would last until midweek, but added it was \u201chighly unlikely that I\u2019d extend it\u201d further if no agreement is reached before the new deadline.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, US Vice President JD Vance is scheduled to travel to Pakistan on Tuesday for talks on Iran, according to Axios citing US sources.<\/p>\n
