In a bold diplomatic challenge, Iran has claimed that a single phone call from U.S. President Donald Trump could halt the escalating Middle East conflict and silence Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, in a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter), asserted that Washington holds the power to restrain Israel. “It takes one phone call from Washington to muzzle someone like Netanyahu. That may pave the way for a return to diplomacy,” Araghchi declared.
This response follows President Trump's recent remarks urging Tehran to pursue negotiations with Israel in order to avoid a broader regional war. Trump warned that continued aggression could lead to devastating consequences.
According to Araghchi, Iran has no interest in prolonging the war, emphasizing that the country did not initiate the hostilities. However, he stressed that Iran’s defensive actions will continue unless Israel halts its military offensives.

“If President Trump is genuine about diplomacy and interested in stopping this war, next steps are consequential. Israel must halt its aggression,” Araghchi stated.
Meanwhile, Netanyahu remains defiant, vowing to continue Israel’s military campaign until Iran’s nuclear and ballistic programs are completely dismantled.
