SINGAPORE, May 30 (Reuters) - The U.S. is ready to restart attacks on Iran if a deal cannot be reached, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said on Saturday, as negotiators from Washington and Tehran worked to bridge major differences blocking an agreement."Our ability to recommence if necessary...we are more than capable," Hegseth said in Singapore."Our stockpiles are more than suited for that, both there and around the globe, so we're in a very good place," he added.
