Trump cautious on Iran deal

President Donald Trump has signaled a cautious approach to finalizing a peace agreement with Iran, stating that he has instructed negotiators not to rush despite a framework being largely in place.

The potential deal aims to end the ongoing conflict, secure a 60-day ceasefire, and reopen the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz.

However, the administration is facing a rare public rebuke from senior Republican hawks, including Senators Ted Cruz and Lindsey Graham, who warn the deal could be a disastrous mistake.

Iranian officials have also expressed friction over revised terms, particularly regarding nuclear ambitions and the lifting of economic sanctions.
