President Donald Trump announced during a White House cabinet meeting on Wednesday that while Iran is very much intent on making a deal to end their almost three-month war, the United States is not yet satisfied with the offers provided.
Trump stated that Washington is in no rush, suggesting that Iran cannot out-wait him. He warned that the U.S. will either reach a satisfactory agreement or they will have to finish the job.
Regarding specific terms, the president mentioned that under a potential deal, the Strait of Hormuz would open immediately, though it would not be controlled by anyone.
Meanwhile, the White House dismissed a report from Iranian state television concerning a draft agreement, labeling it a complete fabrication. These developments have damped expectations for an imminent breakthrough in negotiations.
