On June 10, U.S. President Trump stated on Fox News that he is close to ordering new strikes on Iran's infrastructure, including power plants and bridges, and accused Tehran of delaying negotiations and refusing to accept what Washington believes should have been agreed upon. Recently, Trump claimed that Iran's military forces have been thoroughly defeated and warned its leaders that they missed the opportunity for diplomatic negotiations. He further described the country as 'only talking, with no action.' Analysts noted that these comments came amid ongoing limited military strikes between the U.S. and Iran, despite a ceasefire. Trump is increasingly frustrated with the negotiation process, believing that Tehran intends to delay reaching an agreement. He publicly stated that Iran rejected what he called a favorable deal and is now facing increasingly severe military consequences. In the future, if there are no unexpected breakthroughs or a dovish Fed, risk assets may continue to face pressure.
