A 60-day window to negotiate a peace deal to end the war with Iran has expired, with President Trump issuing sharp criticisms of U.S. allies. Trump's administration has been engaged in a conflict with Iran, and the deadline for a diplomatic resolution has passed without success.

During this period, Trump reportedly threatened to bomb Oman, a nation that had been mediating the negotiations. Additionally, he called for scaled-back military exercises with South Korea, citing the country's refusal to join the war effort. These actions signal a hardening stance and increased pressure on international partners.

Amna Nawaz and Dan Sagalyn of PBS NewsHour discussed the current status of the war and its implications with experts Alan Eyre and Reuel Marc Gerecht. The conversation likely delved into the diplomatic failures, the escalating tensions, and what the expiration of the peace deal deadline means for regional stability and future U.S. foreign policy.
