After exchanging missiles and after Iran attacked Kuwait, the U.S. and Iran have agreed to a 60-day memorandum of understanding to extend the so-called ceasefire and open wider talks on the nuclear program.
Axios reports the U.S. and Iran have reached a tentative deal pending President Trump’s final approval. Reported terms include unrestricted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz with no tolls, an Iranian pledge not to pursue nuclear weapons, a 60-day window to address Tehran’s enriched uranium stockpile and enrichment program, and possible U.S. sanctions relief alongside reconstruction aid discussions.
President Trump has not yet agreed.

“The Islamic Republic will never have a relationship of friendship with America and Israel,” Abdollah Haji Sadeghi said on Thursday, according to Iranian media.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said Iranian people must endure economic and political pressure as part of its confrontation with the United States, adding that Iran would not pursue “humiliating” diplomacy or seek nuclear weapons.
“If we stood against the world’s strongest power, we must accept the hardships,” Pezeshkian said on Thursday, according to the state media.
Pezeshkian also blamed Israel for instability in the region and said foreign powers had expected unrest inside Iran after military strikes but were “surprised by continued public support for the government more than 80 days into the conflict.”
It sounds like the deal is the same deal. Iran said they will never give up their nuclear material.

“Iran submitted its proposals in a 14-point document. The only problem is U.S. confusion in negotiations.
Trump is in a strategic deadlock while seeking talks.
