President Trump will convene a full Cabinet meeting at Camp David on Wednesday as new U.S. military strikes on Iran reignite tensions and cast uncertainty over a potential Middle East peace agreement.
Iranian officials have declared Monday's American strikes "a gross violation" of the ceasefire agreement and warned of retaliation, complicating White House efforts to lock down a broader peace deal that Trump had described as largely within reach just days ago.
Iranian officials said the Monday strikes were "a gross violation" of the ceasefire agreement and threatened retaliatory action if the attacks continued, according to The Korea Times. U.S. officials disputed that the strikes crossed any agreed line.
Trump struck an uncertain tone in the days before the Camp David session. He said during the weekend that a peace deal had been "largely negotiated," then retreated from that characterization. The president has also laid out preconditions for any agreement, demanding that Middle Eastern countries sign the Abraham Accords and that Iran surrender what he called "nuclear dust." Trump told reporters that any deal "will either be a great and meaningful one, or there will be no deal."
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said a deal could take "a few more days," according to The Hill.
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is expected to attend the Wednesday meeting despite having announced her resignation last week. Gabbard is slated to remain in her post through the end of June.
The Camp David gathering marks Trump's second visit to the Maryland presidential retreat during his second term. He made 15 trips to the site over the course of his first term and has described it as "very rustic," according to CNN.
With no timetable confirmed for formal negotiations to conclude, Iran's warnings of retaliation remain the central uncertainty hanging over any potential Middle East peace agreement.
