Iran 'getting a lot closer' to agreement with US, Trump says

Tehran also signals progress on talks but says the key issue of nuclear weapons is not part of an initial framework it is working on.

President Trump stated that U.S. and Iranian negotiators are nearing a final agreement to end the conflict, with discussions including reopening the Strait of Hormuz and unfreezing Iranian assets.

Field Marshal Asim Munir of Pakistan arrived in Tehran to mediate a peace deal between the U.S. and Iran aimed at ending the war and initiating broader negotiations.

President Trump indicated that the US and Iran are nearing finalization of an agreement, with the latest proposal including reopening the Strait of Hormuz and unfreezing some Iranian assets. He emphasized that the final agreement would prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.

President Donald Trump announced that a peace deal with Iran had largely been reached, after calls with Gulf allies and Israel, potentially paving the way for an end to the war launched by the US and Israel in February.

President Trump said Saturday that a deal with Iran, including opening the Strait of Hormuz, has been 'largely negotiated.' Final aspects and details of the deal are currently being discussed and will be announced shortly.
