Deal with Iran expected this weekend

U.S. President Donald Trump announced what he described as a "great agreement" to end the conflict with Iran, expressing anticipation that it will be signed in Europe, potentially as early as this weekend. Trump stated that U.S. Vice President JD Vance would represent the American side at the signing.

“

We have just reached a great agreement to resolve the conflict with Iran. The formalization of the documents is now pending, which should be completed in the coming days, and a signing will probably take place, perhaps in Europe.

According to Trump, the deal stipulates that Iran would commit to never acquiring or purchasing nuclear weapons. He also suggested that the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has previously claimed to have closed, would be reopened upon the agreement's signing. Trump indicated his belief that Iran's supreme leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, had personally approved the deal, attributing Iran's acceptance to feeling pressure.

Iran would agree to never acquire or purchase nuclear weapons under the agreement.

However, there has been no official confirmation from Iran regarding the agreement. Trump provided limited details about the specific concessions made by each party. The announcement comes amid ongoing international scrutiny of Iran's nuclear program and regional activities.
