Tammy Bruce said US envoys would no longer fly around the world “at the drop of a hat” to act as a go-between in peace talks.

It was now “between the two parties” to present concrete ideas on how the conflict would end, she insisted, although the US remained committed to helping. She said the US was changing the methodology of how it contributed to the conflict, adding: “We will not be the mediators.”

US President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance have both previously warned that they could walk away from peace talks if there was no progress in negotiations on a ceasefire.
