President Donald Trump told Axios he would not allow “much time” for diplomacy after two nights without US strikes on Iran, saying talks must go fast or not at all while warning of strong military action if they fail.

DW relayed Trump’s 27 July comments to Axios during the multi-day strike pause and Iran–Oman Hormuz talks. Trump also claimed “very deep talks with Iran,” which Iranian officials publicly disputed that week by saying they were not holding direct talks with Washington. CBS’s following-day live coverage tracked the same diplomacy window and the threat to resume strikes. This package is presidential signaling, not a new strike order.
