Trump tells Dutch royals to increase Iran pressure

President Donald Trump told Dutch King Willem‑Alexander and Queen Máxima during a private White House dinner that the United States must bring the war against Iran to a swift conclusion. He explained that the only way to bring Tehran back to the negotiating table is to increase pressure on the country. This private remark aligns with Trump's public stance of escalating pressure to force Iran into talks, as the U.S. continues its naval blockade and sanctions. The dinner highlights ongoing diplomatic efforts amid the conflict, with recent reports of progress in negotiations via Pakistani mediation.
