President Donald Trump has asked for changes to a proposed agreement with Iran, CNN reported, sending the draft back after reviewing it with advisers. The requested revisions focus on stronger language around Iran’s nuclear commitments and its role in reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
The move keeps negotiations active for at least another week, according to the account of the talks. U.S. officials still see a possible agreement within reach, even as several major issues remain unresolved. Those include financial relief for Iran, the future of its enriched uranium stockpile, and the terms Tehran wants secured before giving final approval.
The Strait of Hormuz remains central because of its importance to global energy shipping. Any disruption there can affect oil movement and raise concern across international markets.
For now, the talks appear to be moving through another round of edits rather than breaking down. Officials also suggested that further military action is unlikely while negotiations continue.
