> Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said it would be a good time to seek an end to the war with the United States, arguing that Iran was in a position of strength and dignity. He said Tehran would not bow to intimidation. His remarks came as the June partial truce remained ambiguous and Donald Trump threatened harsher economic pressure on Iran.
