Abbas Aslani, senior researcher at the Tehran Center for Middle East Strategic Studies, said the US publicly insists on an economic-suffocation strategy and denies negotiating while privately sending informal messages to Tehran via regional intermediaries. He said Washington appears intent on crediting any small negotiation progress to its pressure. Aslani added Trump needs not only an exit route but also to package the outcome as a domestic political victory, and that Trump’s erratic negotiating style makes the timing of an end to the war unclear — developments in the coming days or weeks remain uncertain because the US president is neither stable nor predictable.
