Vance Cautions Iran on Consequences if Fragile Truce Fails
(MENAFN) US Vice President JD Vance cautioned on Wednesday that Iran could face consequences if it undermines the recently established “fragile truce,” emphasizing the United States’ military and economic leverage.
“If they’re going to lie, if they’re going to cheat … then they’re not going to be happy,” Vance said during a speech at Mathias Corvinus Collegium in Hungary.
He highlighted that the US possesses a “clear military advantage” and “extraordinary economic leverage,” noting that a deal remains achievable if Iran engages “in good faith.”
“If the Iranians are willing … to work with us, I think we can make an agreement,” he added.
Vance also voiced disappointment with European leaders regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict, arguing that Washington has been let down by what he described as insufficient commitment to resolving the war.
He singled out Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orban as comparatively more cooperative than most European capitals. Questioning the continuation of hostilities, Vance said the conflict “has stopped making sense,” cautioning against prolonged fighting for limited territorial gains at the expense of lives and economic strain.
“Is that worth losing hundreds of thousands of additional Russian and Ukrainian young men?” he asked.
