What is Trump saying about peace deal?
US President Donald Trump late Friday night said that he believes a deal with Iran could be signed over the weekend or on Monday, reported NBC, citing the president’s interaction with Axios.
Trump said the US would be represented by Vice President JD Vance in Europe. He also said that Iran has agreed to give up its nuclear ambitions, stop pursuing nuclear weapons and open the Strait of Hormuz once the deal is signed. However, there hasn't been any comments from Iran on this so far.
