"If they don’t agree, the bombing starts, and it will be, sadly, at a much higher level and intensity than it was before. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J. TRUMP."
His comments comes just hours after Axios reported that the US and Iran were close to an agreement that would bring their two-month war to an end.
Citing two US officials the news outlet reported that Washington expects responses from Tehran on several key points to form the basis of a one-page memo within the next 48 hours.
The one-page memo is being used as the basis for negotiations and would involve both sides lifting restrictions around transit through the Strait of Hormuz.
“Nothing has been agreed yet, but the sources said this was the closest the parties had been to an agreement since the war began,” Axios reported.
