In recent comments, US President Donald Trump remarked that Iran is 'dying to make a deal' to conclude the ongoing conflict, which has been paused under a ceasefire since April 8. As the 60-day deadline set by the War Powers Resolution of 1973 approaches, Trump must decide whether to continue military operations against Iran or seek congressional approval. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth testified that the current ceasefire effectively pauses the 60-day clock for military action, altering the legal interpretation of the situation. Meanwhile, peace negotiations between the US and Iran have transitioned from in-person discussions in Pakistan to phone conversations. Despite Trump's assertion that negotiations are progressing, his recent warnings to Iran to 'get smart' suggest ongoing tensions.
