The prospects for peace in the Middle East suffered a fresh setback, with President Donald Trump saying he’s not interested in extending the expiring agreement with Iran and fighting flaring anew in Lebanon. 

Asked whether he would seek an extension of the memorandum of understanding signed in June — which technically expires Monday — Trump told reporters, “No.” That truce was meant to give Washington and Tehran a window to reach a more lasting peace deal within 60 days.

As the Iran war approaches the six-month mark and tensions over the re-opening of the Strait of Hormuz have sparked flare-ups in hostilities, both sides have said the agreement is defunct. Still, Trump insisted on Monday that the US had leverage over Iran, citing the naval blockade of Iranian ports.
