The prospect of a second round of talks was uncertain Tuesday after Iran’s chief negotiator accused the United States of wanting his country to surrender

Trump is extending a ceasefire with Iran at Pakistan’s request. The announcement came as a two-week truce was set to expire Wednesday.

The United States and Iran have signalled they will hold a new round of ceasefire talks in Pakistan, two regional officials said Tuesday, as leaders on both sides warned they were prepared for more fighting if a fragile two-week truce expires without a deal.

The extension was announced just hours before it was set to expire. The president did not provide details on how long the new ceasefire extension will last.

President Trump said he's extending the ceasefire until Iran has submitted a proposal in talks with the U.S. "and discussions are concluded."

As it remains uncertain whether Tehran will return to the negotiating table, Trump warned the U.S. will resume its assault of Iran if talks don't progress.

Prospects for further negotiations remain uncertain, with Tehran and Washington offering conflicting signals on the ceasefire's status.
