U.S. Vice President Vance said that if Iran failed to reach an agreement before the final deadline that evening, the United States may escalate its actions against Iran, even using measures that had not yet been used. Vance said the United States has the ability to “inflict greater pain,” but emphasized that neither President Trump nor he personally “wants to go that far,” and that negotiations are being actively advanced at present. He said the U.S. expects to receive Iran’s response by 20:00 U.S. Eastern Time on the 7th (8:00 on the 8th Beijing time), regardless of whether the outcome is positive or negative. Vance warned that the United States still has “measures that have not yet been used.” If Iran does not cooperate, the U.S. does not rule out using these measures. (CCTV News)
