Trump threatens renewed military action on Iran as talks continue

US President Donald Trump warned that military strikes on Iran could resume if diplomacy fails, while commenting on Russian satellite intelligence and Ukraine ties.
US President Donald Trump stated that Washington is engaged in intensive negotiations with Tehran, warning that the United States will resume "very strong military action" if diplomatic efforts collapse. The announcement comes after Trump ordered a halt to two weeks of daily American air strikes against Iranian targets to allow Omani-mediated talks on reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
In related comments, Trump indicated he will ask Russian President Vladimir Putin if Moscow supplied Iran with satellite imagery of US installations in the region prior to recent base attacks.
Concurrently, political commentator Laura Loomer met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv, offering a public apology for previous anti-Ukraine rhetoric. Trump shared a clip of the meeting with praise online, signaling potential shifts in messaging ahead of planned discussions between the two leaders in Washington.
