Trump Says US-Iran Temporary Ceasefire Deal Has Ended

CoinFeed reported on July 8, according to Jinshi, US President Trump said that the temporary ceasefire agreement he reached with Iran has ended, escalating the possibility of renewed military conflict between the two countries. 'For me, I think it's over,' he said Wednesday at the NATO annual summit. 'As far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of time.' Trump made the remarks shortly after the US launched a new wave of strikes against Iran and revoked waivers allowing Iranian oil sales. The actions, in response to recent attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz, have injected new volatility into energy markets and tested the already fragile peace deal between the US and Iran. Trump said, 'I don't want to deal with them, but they are scum. Do you know what scum is? They are scum. They are sick people, led by sick people, they are vicious and violent people, and if they had nuclear weapons, they would use them.'
