The U.S. and Iran have agreed to a 60-day ceasefire, but Trump has not yet approved the deal — Axios
The United States and Iran have agreed on a draft 60-day memorandum of understanding that calls for an extension of the ceasefire and the launch of new negotiations on Iran’s nuclear program.
This was reported by Axios.
According to the publication’s sources, the parties have already agreed on the document’s main provisions, but it has not yet taken effect due to the lack of final approval from U.S. President Donald Trump.
U.S. officials note that Trump has reviewed the details of the agreements but has asked for a few days to make a decision.
The draft memorandum provides for:
▪️ A 60-day extension of the ceasefire
▪️ Guarantees of free navigation through the Strait
of Hormuz ▪️ A gradual lifting of the military blockade
▪️ Negotiations on Iran’s nuclear program
▪️ Discussions on the issue of highly enriched uranium
▪️ A possible easing of sanctions against Iran
In return, Tehran must abandon steps related to the development of nuclear weapons.
Axios notes that the parties have come close to similar agreements on multiple occasions in the past, but final deals have fallen through at the last minute.
Iran and the U.S. exchangedaccusations following the latest strikes.
The day before, U.S. President Donald Trump announced significant progress in negotiations with Tehran, noting that as part of a potential agreement, Iran could transfer its highly enriched uranium to the United States.
