  "summary": "US President Donald Trump said Iran wants an agreement with the United States but is not yet prepared to accept terms he considers necessary. Trump told reporters that Tehran is not ready to make the right deal.\n\nAccording to Trump, Iran is facing significant economic challenges, with 350% inflation, and is struggling to pay its soldiers and police. The US has pledged to impose the toughest financial penalties in history with the aim of toppling the Iranian leadership.\n\nChina has pushed back on Trump's threat of an \"economic D-Day\" against Iran, saying sanctions do not \"fit the interest of any party.\" Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi rejected the premise of US pressure, saying Trump's campaign was \"bound to fail\" like previous rounds of US pressure.",
