Axios claims: The head of the CIA advised Trump to continue the "no war, no deal" policy with Iran. Axios reporter Barak Ravid, citing sources, claimed that John Ratcliffe, head of the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), advised Donald Trump to maintain the current status of "no war, no agreement" with Iran and allow the continuation of the campaign of economic pressure against Tehran. Ravid wrote on his user account on the X social network: "Ratcliffe told Trump that continued economic pressures and long-term livelihood problems will force Iran to make more concessions or create enough instability within this country for the citizens to revolt." Ravid also quoted Trump in another message and claimed that the US president told him in a phone interview on Monday that he was "in no rush" to make a decision about renewing the war with Iran.
