Iran doesn’t believe Donald Trump

Questions are emerging about how Iran is interpreting recent U.S. ceasefire extensions after President Donald Trump announced another delay in potential military action while awaiting a response from Tehran.

The original 14-day ceasefire between the United States and Iran reached its deadline this week, but the administration extended the timeline again to allow space for further diplomatic engagement and a possible unified proposal from Iranian leadership.

Earlier in the conflict, the president issued multiple response deadlines that were later extended, reflecting continued efforts to keep negotiations moving rather than escalate military pressure.

Analysts say repeated timeline adjustments may affect how Iranian officials interpret U.S. negotiating signals as talks continue through regional intermediaries, including Pakistan.

Officials in Washington maintain that military options remain available while diplomacy proceeds, as both sides weigh next steps following the ceasefire extension.
