The United States could potentially restart military operations against Iran if diplomatic efforts stall and Tehran does not respond to a mutual understanding memorandum within a critical 48-hour window, according to reports citing American officials.

Diplomatic Deadline Approaches

American officials have indicated they are awaiting a response from Tehran within the next 24 to 48 hours. Sources close to the negotiations suggest that while a deal is nearing, it is not yet finalized. "We are not far, but the deal is not done," one source told Axios.

White House Aims for Pre-Trump Trip Resolution

The White House is reportedly aiming to achieve a diplomatic breakthrough before President Trump's trip to China, scheduled for May 14-15. If an agreement is not reached by then, the publication suggests that the US President may reconsider the use of military force.

Trump's Warning on Escalation

Earlier, on Wednesday, May 6, US President Donald Trump did not rule out new attacks if negotiations failed. "If they don't agree, there will be attacks, and unfortunately, they will be much larger and more intense than before," he stated.

Memorandum Details

The White House believes a 14-point memorandum on ceasing hostilities between the US and Iran could be signed soon, initiating a period of negotiations. This memorandum reportedly includes provisions for 30-day talks on Iran's nuclear program, the lifting of US sanctions, and the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. It also involves Iran renouncing its pursuit of nuclear weapons and declaring a moratorium on uranium enrichment for at least 12 years.

This development highlights the delicate state of US-Iran relations and the high stakes involved in the ongoing diplomatic efforts.
