Vice President JD Vance declared in Budapest that the United States has largely accomplished its military objectives in Iran and believes it is still possible to receive a response from Tehran to a ceasefire proposal by Trump's deadline.

This marked a significant shift in tone from the 'whole civilization will die' ultimatum language, suggesting a negotiated outcome was within reach.

Vice President JD Vance said in Budapest on April 7 that the United States has largely accomplished its military objectives in Iran. Speaking alongside Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, Vance said the US still believed it was possible to receive a response from Tehran to a ceasefire proposal before Trump's 8PM ET deadline. The statement marked a notable shift from the confrontational language of previous days. Vance's remarks came as Iran submitted its 10-point peace proposal and as international pressure for a diplomatic settlement intensified.
