Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Says Iran Deal Can Wait as US Blockade Continues
Caption: Trump Says Iran Deal Can Wait as US Blockade Continues. President Donald Trump says the U.S. is in no rush to finalize a peace agreement with Iran, even as negotiations continue over ending the conflict and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. In a Truth Social post, Trump said the U.S. naval blockade on Iranian ships would remain fully in place until a formal agreement is signed and certified. A senior U.S. official says Iran has agreed “in principle” to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and discuss disposing of its highly enriched uranium stockpile, though major disagreements remain over sanctions, frozen Iranian funds, and regional conflicts. Oil prices dropped sharply after reports of possible progress, but critics from both parties argue the proposed framework looks similar to the 2015 Iran nuclear deal that Trump abandoned during his first term. Meanwhile, tensions remain high as global energy markets continue to feel the impact of the war. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
