This is painful for both sides, but I would say that Iran does not win this war and should talk, they should talk immediately before it is too late,” said Trump during a meeting with Prime Minister Canada Marek Carney on the margins of the G7 summit in Kananaskis in the province of Albert.
The American leader added that he did not want to say anything about the possible US participation in Israeli raids. He assured, however, that America “always supported Israel”.

According to the Reuters agency, Iran turned to Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Oman to ask US President Donald Trump to put an emphasis on Israel to agree on the immediate suspension of weapons. “WSJ”, however, said that, despite this, Arab brokers assessed that there were no signs that could indicate Iran's readiness for new concessions in nuclear conversations.

Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs: Trump could end the war with one phone
Foreign Minister Iran Abbas Aragczi announced on Monday that Iranian forces will continue to attack Israel“until the attacks on the Islamic Republic ceased.” He also expressed the conviction that the war could be quickly ended by US President Donald Trump.
“Our powerful armed forces show the world that war criminals hiding in shelters in Tel Aviv will not remain unpunished after their crimes,” Aragczi wrote on Platform X.
“We will continue to cover these cowards until they stop shooting at our people,” he added.
At the same time, he expressed the belief that US President Donald Trump would be able to stop Israel's attacks on Iran with “one phone” to the prime minister of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu.
UK: Bombarding will not change anything. Only diplomacy will help
The British Foreign Minister David Lamma stated on Monday that no military action would end the nuclear potential of Iran and only negotiations can lead to agreement in this matter. Great Britain, France and Germany had five rounds of talks with Iran this year.
“It should not be surprising that Israel considers the Iranian nuclear program to be an existential threat,” said the head of British diplomacy during a speech in the House of Commons. At the same time, he noted that “Great Britain was not involved in Iran attacks; this is a military action carried out by Israel.”
Lammy emphasized that the United Kingdom “has always supported the safety of Israel” and therefore “tried to prevent Iran's nuclear weapon by conducting extensive diplomatic actions.”
“One phone call from Washington is enough to silence someone like Netanyahu. This can pave the way to return to diplomacy, “Aragczi wrote in a post, in which he expressed doubts whether Trump” treats diplomacy seriously and is interested in stopping the war. “
“Israel must end its aggression, and in the case of the lack of complete cessation of military aggression against us, our retaliation will continue,” he emphasized.
Israel plans to eliminate Iran's leader?
The elimination of the political and spiritual leader of Iran Ali Chamenei will not exacerbate the conflict, but will end it – said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday in an interview with American television ABC News.
The Prime Minister of Israel was asked to comment on media reports, according to which US President Donald Trump rejected the Israeli plan to kill Chameneia in fear of the possibility of escalation of the conflict. “It does not escalate the conflict, it will end the conflict” he replied.
Asked if Israel could really kill the leader of Iran, Netanyahu replied that his country “does what he had to do.”
“I do not intend to go into details, but we attacked their leading scientists” working on the atomic program – he noted. “It's basically the nuclear syndrome of Hitler,” he added.
Israeli Prime Minister said that it is in the interest of the US to support Israel, which strives to eliminate the Iranian nuclear program.
“Today this is Tel Aviv. Tomorrow is New York. I understand (approach) America First (America above all). I do not understand America Dead (dead America). This is what these people want. They are chanting: death of America. So we do something that serves humanity and it is a struggle of good with evil” – he added. He also said that Iran “intentionally attacks” the inhabitants of Israel.
Return to the table? Netanyahu: false negotiations
Netanyahu also commented on the reports of the Monday “Wall Street Journal”, according to which Iran began to signal that he wanted to end warfare and return to negotiations on the nuclear program.
“I'm not surprised. They want to continue these false negotiations in which they lie, cheat, deceive the US. We have very good intelligence information on this subject,” he said. He stated that Iran still wants to build his nuclear weapon and ballistic missiles. “They want to continue working on two existential threats to Israel during talks. It won't happen,” said Netanyahu.
