As US President Donald Trump is still withholding any announcement on whether a possible peace deal has been reached with Iran, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told an international forum on Saturday that the “status as of right now is that any deal will be a good deal.”
Yesterday, Trump met with advisers in the White House Situation Room, where they discussed a tentative agreement that would open the Strait of Hormuz and start nuclear talks with Iran.
And in Tehran, there’s been little official reaction to the demands made by Trump on Friday for the tentative agreement.
