Trump says he doesn’t need Xi’s help on Iran<\/h2>\n
\n

President Donald Trump said that he does not need Chinese President Xi Jinping\u2019s help in the war in Iran as he departed the White House for China. However, he said he would speak to the leader at length about the conflict. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\u201cI don’t think we need any help with Iran. We’ll win it one way or the other, peacefully or otherwise,\u201d Trump told reporters on Tuesday. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The leaders of \u200cthe world’s two largest economies will hold their first face-to-face talks in more than six months as they try to stabilize ties strained by trade, the US and Israeli war with Iran and other areas of disagreement.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Trump is heading to China amid an unresolved Iran war with diplomatic negotiations to end it at an impasse. Beijing maintains ties with Iran and remains a major consumer of its oil exports.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Hezbollah leader urges Lebanon to quit direct Israel talks<\/h2>\n
\n

The leader of Lebanon\u2019s militant Hezbollah<\/a> group called on the government Tuesday to withdraw from direct talks with Israel<\/a>, calling them a concession and urging \u201cindirect negotiations.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Lebanon<\/a> and Israel are scheduled to hold two days of talks in Washington<\/a> starting Thursday in an attempt to end the latest fighting that broke out two months ago, following the Iran war, and discuss the future of relations between the two sides that have been at war since Israel was created in 1948.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Hezbollah leader urges indirect talks<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Naim Kassem said in a letter directed to the group\u2019s officials that direct negotiations benefit Israel and that they are \u201cconcessions by Lebanese authorities.\u201d He said Lebanon\u2019s government should instead resort to indirect negotiations with Israel, as in previous years, such as when a ceasefire was reached in November 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Indirect talks are usually done through a third party.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Tehran threatens to accelerate nuclear weapon programme after Trump rejects \u2018garbage\u2019 peace proposal response<\/h2>\n
\n

Tehran<\/a> could enrich uranium up to 90 per cent purity – a level considered weapons-grade – if the country is attacked once more, a top parliamentary official, Ebrahim Rezaei, said on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“One of Iran’s options in the event of another attack could be 90 percent enrichment. We will review it in the parliament,” he posted on X.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It follows reports in CNN<\/em> that Donald Trump is considering new military strikes on the country, as he grows impatient with the continued closure of the Strait of Hormuz and feels a division in the Iranian leadership is obstructing progress towards a deal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Iran previously warned UK presence in Hormuz will be met with ‘decisive response’<\/h2>\n
\n

Iran\u2019s deputy foreign minister said that the presence of French and British warships in the key shipping route, effectively controlled by Tehran in retaliation for US and Israeli attacks, \u201cwill be met with a decisive and immediate response\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It came after the UK\u2019s Ministry of Defence (MoD) said the Royal Navy was sending the HMS Dragon<\/em> warship to the Middle East, where it could join an international mission<\/a> to safeguard shipping in the Strait of Hormuz<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Sir Keir Starmer had originally said the mission, planned alongside French president Emmanuel Macron, would only take place once fighting in the region ends.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
