Trump Says Iran Negotiations Advancing Without Pressure to Close Deal

Diplomatic efforts to resolve the Iran conflict and restore traffic through the Strait of Hormuz are moving forward in a measured fashion, President Donald Trump said. Trump instructed his negotiating team to avoid hastening an agreement, stating that strategic advantage lies with the U.S. side. The nearly three-month conflict has roiled global energy markets and driven up fuel prices. A U.S. naval blockade of Iranian ports remains active pending a final accord. Proposed terms include reopening the Strait of Hormuz, ending hostilities, releasing frozen Iranian assets, and establishing a framework for nuclear program restrictions. Trump emphasized both parties must proceed deliberately to ensure a sustainable resolution.
