Iran has declared its readiness for the potential end of a ceasefire with the United States, hinting at surprises and a threat to unleash havoc. The 14-day ceasefire is set to expire on Wednesday, with President Donald Trump vacillating between optimism for a deal and warnings of impending conflict if no agreement is reached. The Iranian semi-official news agency Tasnim has stated that Iran is prepared to confront the Americans and Israelis in case of war, citing American aggression as a hindrance to negotiations. Iran has also hinted at new tactics and military redeployments in anticipation of potential hostilities. Meanwhile, Iranian state television has denied any visits to Islamabad amid speculation of talks with the US, reflecting internal deliberations within Iran’s leadership. US Vice President JD Vance is expected to lead American representatives to the talks, while Iran has not yet disclosed its delegation leader. Iranian parliamentary speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf has criticized the US for pressuring Iran to concede, asserting Iran’s readiness to unveil new strategies in combat. Qalibaf emphasized Iran’s stance against negotiating under threats, contrasting Trump’s assertion of no pressure to end the conflict until Iran agrees to his terms.
