""I don't want to use the word 'frustrated,' because he understands he has plenty of alternatives, but he's curious as to why they haven't ... I don't want to use the word 'capitulated,' but why they haven't capitulated," Witkoff said in an interview on Fox News on Sunday. "Why, under this pressure, with the amount of sea power and naval power over there, why haven't they come to us and said: 'We profess we don't want a weapon, so here's what we're prepared to do'?""
""The United States wants Iran to give up its supplies of enriched uranium, which Washington says could potentially be used to make a nuclear weapon, and to stop supporting militants in the Middle East and accept limits on its missile program. "They've been enriching well beyond the number that you need for civil nuclear [purposes]," said Witkoff, claiming Tehran was enriching uranium "up to 60%\" fissile purity. "They're probably a week away from having industrial, industrial-grade bomb-making material, and that's really dangerous," he claimed.""
Trump questions why Iran has not yielded to mounting pressure despite US naval and sea power presence. The United States demands that Iran surrender enriched uranium supplies, cease support for militants in the Middle East, and accept limits on its missile program. Special envoy Steve Witkoff claimed Tehran has been enriching uranium up to 60% fissile purity and warned Iran may be a week away from industrial-grade bomb-making material. Iran maintains its nuclear program is peaceful while stating willingness to accept some limitations for sanctions relief. The US issued a 10–15 day ultimatum amid a military buildup and heightened regional tensions.
