US-Iran war: Did Donald Trump deliberately choose the NATO Summit to reject the ceasefire deal?

US President Donald Trump's rejection of a US-Iran ceasefire deal during the NATO Summit is seen as a strategic move to pressure European allies to align with Washington's Middle East policy, with threats to disrupt energy supply through the Strait of Hormuz. The development pushed crude oil prices sharply higher, raising concerns for India as a major oil importer. Experts view Trump's comments as a negotiation tactic rather than a complete end to diplomacy, with Iran still reportedly open to a deal.
