BREAKING: Huge Win For Iran As Trump, Gulf Allies ‘Forced To Surrender’, Netanyahu ‘Fully Abandoned’

Added: 2026-05-23

[00:00:02]A dramatic new diplomatic push to end the Iran war appears to be unfolding behind closed doors in Washington with US President Donald Trump holding an emergency summit style phone call with key Middle Eastern leaders aimed at securing a broader ceasefire framework with Iran that could potentially halt the conflict within the next 24 hours.

[00:00:22]But one detail is drawing enormous attention. Trump appears to be leaning heavily on Gulf and regional intermediaries while increasingly sidelining Benjamin Netanyahu from the core negotiation track. According to reports by Axios, Trump convened a highlevel call involving the leaders of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Egypt, Jordan, and Turkey to discuss updated language for a possible interim agreement aimed at ending the war and launching substantive negotiations.

[00:00:52]Reuters separately reported that Pakistan was also involved in the diplomacy, reinforcing the sudden visit of Pakistani Army Chief Asamunir and Interior Minister Mosen Maki to Thran.

[00:01:02]Reports from Axios and Reuters suggest Trump now believes a diplomatic breakthrough may still be possible and is personally reviewing draft understandings that could formally end the war framework, reopen maritime stability discussions around the Strait of Hormuz, and launch a follow-up negotiation process over Iran's nuclear program. Trump himself said negotiators were getting closer to a deal and described the situation as 50/50, warning that he could still order fresh military strikes if diplomacy collapses.

[00:01:29]Yet, while the White House intensifies regional diplomacy, Israeli media reports suggest Netanyahu is increasingly frustrated at being pushed away from the center of Trump's decision-making process. There was no indication that Netanyahu or senior Israeli officials participated in the summit call despite Israel having jointly launched the war against Iran alongside the United States earlier this year. That absence is now being interpreted by some analysts as evidence of growing divergence between Washington and Tel Aviv over how the conflict should end. While Trump increasingly appears focused on securing a quick diplomatic exit amid mounting economic and political pressure, Netanyahu is widely viewed as favoring continued military pressure against Iran and its regional allies. The White House move also comes amid reports that Trump is simultaneously consulting his closest inner circle about a possible deal framework. According to Rave, Trump was expected to meet with Envoy Steve Witoff, adviser Jared Kushner, and Vice President J. D. Vance regarding the latest draft agreement. The timing is critical because multiple reports now suggest the war could reach a decisive moment within the next 24 to 48 hours.

[00:02:29]Iran itself has continued signaling that it is willing to negotiate, but only if the war formally ends first and sanctions pressure begins easing. The core uncertainty now centers on whether Trump believes he can secure enough concessions diplomatically, or whether pressure from Israel and hawkish figures inside Washington eventually pushes him back toward military escalation instead.

[00:02:48]A dramatic new warning from Iran appears to have been delivered directly to Washington through one of the region's most important intermediaries after Iranian parliament speaker and chief negotiator Muhammad Ber Galibah reportedly told Pakistani army chief Aim Munir that any renewed war ordered by Donald Trump would trigger a far more devastating regional response than the first phase of the conflict. ICT.

[00:03:18]According to reports, the message conveyed during Munir's visit to Thran was blunt. If the United States and Israel restart the war, Iran will respond more crushingly and bitterly than it did during the opening stages of the conflict. Behind the scenes, however, according to drop sites reporting citing a senior Iranian official, Thran has already submitted a new framework proposal aimed at ending the war through mediated negotiations.

[00:03:50]The proposal reportedly separates the conflict into two parallel tracks. One focused on officially ending the war and lifting the US naval blockade around Iranian ports and another dealing with the longrunning nuclear dispute. Under Iran's proposed framework, Thran would provisionally reopen the Strait of Hormuz if the United States formally agreed to end military operations, release frozen Iranian assets, and establish a mechanism compensating Iran for wartime damages. But Iranian officials insist there's a critical sequencing issue. Thran reportedly wants a formal declaration ending the war first. Only then would detailed nuclear negotiations proceed. Washington, however, is said to be demanding simultaneous agreements on both fronts while continuing to insist that Iran must permanently surrender highlyenriched uranium stockpiles and severely limit enrichment capabilities.

[00:04:57]That deadlock appears to be driving Thran's increasingly aggressive messaging. According to Iranian officials cited in the report, the country has already rebuilt large portions of its military capability during the ceasefire period. Galibbah himself publicly declared that Iran's armed forces had rebuilt themselves during the ceasefire. A statement clearly intended to signal that Thran believes it has regained operational readiness for a wider confrontation. And Iran is no longer threatening retaliation only inside the Gulf.

[00:05:36]Officials and analysts close to the Islamic Revolutionary Corps are now openly discussing escalation scenarios stretching across the broader region and beyond. According to sources cited by Drops Site, if war resumes, Iran may target not only Israeli and American military assets, but also critical energy infrastructure. across Gulf Arab states viewed as supporting the USIsraeli coalition.

[00:06:05]>> What exactly is the message that General Hassan has for our truly dear and deeply compassionate people, especially at this moment now that we have finally endured the trials of our third consecutive imposed war?

[00:06:16]>> We really must extend our deepest gratitude to the people. I humbly kiss the hands of these dear and noble people who are still standing firm on the scene. And I want to say this clearly to our entire nation. All of our armed forces are now more prepared and ready than they have ever been before. They are standing there fully and powerfully prepared and ready so that in the event that the enemy should happen to make a grave mistake and miscalculate their position once again, they will be ready to deliver a swift and overwhelming response that is significantly harder, far more painful, much more devastating, truly more decisive, and ultimately more final than anything they have ever seen before. The very presence of our great nation serves to significantly strengthen the power of our armed forces.

[00:06:59]>> Particular focus appears to be falling on the United Arab Emirates, which Thrron increasingly accused of aligning too closely with Israel during the war.

[00:07:10]Iran linked analysts quoted in the report suggested that Emirati oil and gas facilities could become priority targets in a renewed conflict. Iranian strategists increasingly appear convinced that this economic leverage is now their strongest deterrent. That calculation has been reinforced by what Thran sees as the failure of earlier USIsraeli military operations to force regime collapse, destroy Iran's missile infrastructure, or break domestic cohesion. But despite the diplomatic activity, Iranian officials appeared deeply skeptical of Trump's intentions.

[00:07:51]The senior Iranian official quoted by Dropsite described Trump as unpredictable and accused him of sending contradictory messages, privately expressing interest in ending the war while publicly threatening fresh strikes if negotiations fail. That uncertainty is now driving Thrron's central message to Washington. Iran is still willing to negotiate. But if Trump chooses war again, the next phase will not remain limited to Iranian territory alone.

[00:08:24]Moaba Kam has drawn a red line for Donald Trump. In a direct warning, the Iranian supreme leader has made it clear if war is forced on Iran again, it will not remain a regional war.

[00:08:42]Moab said, and I quote, "If this time a war and aggression takes place against our beloved country, Iran, it will no longer be a regional war like before, but rather a trans regional war. We will prove to you who knows the war well.

[00:08:58]Iran and Iranians will never surrender.

[00:09:01]Our history and civilization say this.

[00:09:07]Iran's war strategy has been to keep a strangle hold on the straight of Hormuz, blocking oil and gas exports and causing a global energy crisis. At the same time, it has struck hard against oil facilities, hotels, and infrastructure in Gulf Arab nations.

[00:09:26]In negotiations, Tyrron has held out against Washington's demands that it surrender its stockpile of highlyenriched uranium, betting that it can outlast the US in the ongoing standoff and that Trump will be reluctant to resume outright war that could bring greater damage to America's Gulf allies.

[00:09:45]Earlier, Trump reiterated that the war against Iran would be over soon, further claiming that Tyrron wanted to settle badly.

[00:09:54]Venezuela was unbelievable. Right now, Iran, their navy's gone, their air force is gone, everything's gone, their leaders are gone.

[00:10:09]And if you read the fake news, you'd think they're doing just fine. They're not doing just fine. They want to settle so badly. We have the greatest military.

[00:10:17]I just got back from China. President Xi, good man. Good man. And I'll get killed for saying that. that they'll say, "Oh, he called President Xi a good man." Well, we had an amazing time. But even he had to say, "Your military is unbelievable." This is the head of China. We have built I built the greatest military my first four years.

[00:10:35]And I didn't know I was going to be using it this much, but we're using it.

[00:10:39]And we're There's nobody like our equipment. There's nobody like the stuff we produce. But most importantly, there's nobody like our military men and women. And there's nobody.

[00:10:54]I mean, not to brag, but if I didn't win the election, we were dead.

[00:10:59]The welfare was tripling and the business was leaving and the $18 trillion would have been uh 18 trillion to the negative instead of the positive.

[00:11:08]This we would have been a dead country.

[00:11:10]We would have been finished. It's true.

[00:11:12]We ended Joe Biden's insane electric vehicle mandate. THAT'S WHERE THEY WANTED EVERYBODY TO BUY AN ELECTRIC CAR.

[00:11:21]And as I told Elon, I love electric cars, but Elon, it's not for everybody.

[00:11:27]You know, if we would build the charging booths, right, it would cost the country $4 trillion. No country could afford that. Four trillion. You ever get an electric car and you sen get nervous because, you know, your thing is down a little bit. Friends of mine tell me the story. It's down a little bit, getting close, and you're looking, what about a charging station? You know, this is an hour before it runs out. Where's a charger? And then you see it. It's a sign and it says charging station. An arrow pointing to the right. 92 miles and you limp in if you make it at all.

[00:12:01]No, we love electric cars. I have to say that because of Elon, but I love electric cars. They're lovely, lovely vehicles. But I said, I don't want, not everybody wants to have an electric car.

[00:12:12]And I ended that whole nonsense. By 2030, you're going to all have electric cars? I don't think so. How about California? They have electric cars.

[00:12:20]They can't They don't have enough electricity to turn on your air conditioners. They have They have brownouts. And now everybody's going to have an electric car.

[00:12:28]That's one of the worst governors in the country, by the way. That guy.

[00:12:34]But he took himself, did you hear? He announced he's taken himself out of the race. He called himself a dumb person.

[00:12:41]He got very low board scores. Everything he's done is tough. And he can't read a speech. He can't read a speech. So, I don't read too many speeches either. I'd be better off if I did. But he can't read a speech. But he called himself a dumb person. And when you do that, I say it ends. But a friend of mine, very good at politics, say, "Don't worry, people.

[00:13:02]Forget about it." I don't know. I don't think you can f I thought it was the worst. He did this during an interview.

[00:13:08]I thought it was the worst interview by a professional politician in the history of our country because Gavin I think is is when he says he's stupid. He said he's stupid, but remember but he said he's smarter than the people in the room and then he got sued for being a racist.

[00:13:25]Okay? And I guess he probably is a racist, but he said he was a stupid person. You'll never hear me call myself a I'm the smartest guy you're ever going to meet.

[00:13:38]And don't you want to have a smart person as president? You know, you want to have a smart person.

[00:13:45]In fact, I took the cognitive. I'm the only one.

[00:13:49]You know, they called me originally, they said, "He's brilliant. He wants to take over the entire country." THEN THEY SAID, "NO, NO, he wants the world. He doesn't want the country. That's why he's in Iran. That's why he's in Hey, by the way, how did we do in Venezuela? Not bad. That's why he said, you know, we've taken out so much oil in Venezuela, we paid for the cost of the war about 25 times over. When did you hear that last?

[00:14:16]By the way, the oil prices are going to tumble as soon as I finish up with Iran.

[00:14:20]Tumble.

[00:14:24]I was in Iowa. I was in Iowa. We had it down to $185 a gallon in Iowa, but we had it down around the $2 point. And then I said, "Well, Lutnik, we're going to have to take a trip to we got Scott Bessant. We got all of them." I said, "We just hit 50,000 on the DAO." And I said, "That's a record, highest ever." I said, "Sorry to do this to you, but we're going to have to journey down to the Middle East." They said, "Why?" I said, "Because Iran is going to have a nuclear weapon if we don't stop them."

[00:14:53]And I said, "We're going to have to do it." And we have stopped them. They're not going to ever have a nuclear weapon.

[00:15:01]They're never going to have a nuclear weapon. And we'll have that over with soon. We made the largest ever investment in the US military. And we're going to have $1.5 trillion invested.

[00:15:15]And boy, isn't it great that we have the greatest military in the world right now. Isn't it great?

[00:15:23]And with not only Venezuela, but with Operation Epic Fury, our warriors are ensuring that the world's number one state sponsor of terror, Iran, number one state sponsor of terror. They send their money all over the world to create problems. Never going to happen. And they're never going to have a nuclear weapon. And they know that. They know that.

[00:15:50]And America is winning again. America is respected again, perhaps like never before. But we're just getting started.

[00:15:58]With the help of our Republican majorities in Congress, we will crush violent crime. We will impose harsh new penalties for dangerous repeat offenders. We will crack down on Marxist prosecutors and rogue judges that are no good for our country. They're disgraceful. And we will end no cash bail. This is where it began.
