Trump gathers Cabinet as he looks to seal deal to end war that some backers worry will embolden Iran
The emerging deal would trade sanctions relief for Iran’s highly enriched uranium as talks on a ceasefire and the Strait of Hormuz continue.
- President Donald Trump convenes his Cabinet on Wednesday at a critical moment for Iran war negotiations, insisting his administration and Tehran have 'largely negotiated' a settlement despite ongoing flux in talks.
- U.S. military strikes on Iranian missile sites and mine-laying boats Monday complicated talks, with the Pentagon characterizing the action as defensive and restrained, while Iran decried it as a sign of bad faith.
- Iran possesses 440.9 kilograms of uranium enriched to 60% purity, a technical step from weapons-grade levels of 90%, according to the International Atomic Energy Agency; under the emerging deal, Tehran would surrender this stockpile for sanctions relief.
- Republican senators including Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham, and Roger Wicker oppose the terms as too favorable to Tehran, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced Tuesday that Israel is deepening military operations in Lebanon over concerns Iran will strengthen Hezbollah and Hamas.
- Trump's proposal requiring Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Pakistan to join the Abraham Accords met 'stunned silence' from Gulf officials, and Trump risks political damage if media portrays even a uranium concession as a 'Masterful and Brilliant Victory' for Tehran.
