Summarized from The Times of Israel by baba
US President Donald Trump has instructed Vice President JD Vance to stop pursuing a deal with Iran and instead focus on domestic anti-fraud efforts, stating the US does not need an agreement with Tehran. This directive follows reports that Vance was considering direct talks with an Iranian official. The shift in focus occurs after Republican midterm election losses, which some attribute to the ongoing war with Iran and its impact on fuel prices. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reportedly pushed Trump for a renewed military offensive against Iran.
