Trump Warns Fighting With Iran May Start Again
Donald Trump said the ceasefire with Iran may end soon and U.S. attacks could start again if talks do not succeed.
U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday, April 21, 2026 that bombing could start again if the ceasefire with Iran ends without an agreement.
He said he did not want to extend the truce. He also said the U.S. military was ready if talks failed.
At the same time, there were still plans for more negotiations in Islamabad. That means both diplomacy and the risk of war are happening at the same time.
Iran answered with a warning of its own. Iranian officials said they would respond quickly if attacks started again.
This matters far beyond the two countries. The crisis has affected oil markets and made many governments worry about a bigger regional conflict.
For now, the ceasefire is still in place. But Trump's comments showed that the next step could be either a deal or a return to fighting.
