  "account": "Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has blamed the United States for the collapse of an interim agreement with Tehran, expressing his belief that renewed efforts are necessary as tensions rise with Washington and Israel. Speaking on state television, Pezeshkian held America accountable for the failure of the interim deal, stating that negotiations were ongoing but \"cowards\" had sabotaged the process. He reiterated his commitment to proceeding with the agreement, emphasizing the need to reach a resolution.\n\nThe interim agreement, which came under heavy criticism from both Iran and the US, ultimately collapsed in June. Recent reports have suggested that the US and Israel are preparing for a new round of strikes against Iran, raising concerns over the stability of the region. In contrast, US President Donald Trump announced on Friday evening that the United States was engaged in \"constructive talks with Iran.\" Trump assured the public that the US \"will not attack before the midterm elections,\" scheduled for November 3.",
