Chicago rally urges peace, Iran ceasefire as U.S. nears possible deal

Calls to end the war in Iran grew throughout the world and in Chicago on Sunday, where demonstrators came together to push for peace.

Members of Chicago 4 Iran and other advocacy groups gathered outside the Wrigley Building, urging an immediate end to the war – and a peace deal that would guarantee a ceasefire as diplomatic discussions continue.

    President Donald Trump signaled he won’t be rushing toward a deal. In a social media post on Sunday, Trump said, “Time is on our side,” appearing to walk back earlier statements from both nations that hinted a deal could be imminent.

    Regional officials on Sunday told the Associated Press the U.S. is close to reaching a deal with Iran that would end the war, reopen the Strait of Hormuz and see Iran give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, though Trump said he told representatives “not to rush into a deal.”

    Secretary of State Marco Rubio, also speaking on Sunday, said that there had been progress toward an agreement.

    An agreement would not be signed Sunday, according to a person familiar with the status of negotiations who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment publicly. The sides have previously seemed close to a deal in recent weeks, only to falter.

    As talks continue, rallygoers said they simply want a deal today.

    “As negotiations right now are happening, we are just worried about the people inside Iran who are waiting for help and instead they are faced with a country that was bombed with no help on the way,” activist Sepideah Sanie said.

    While many Republicans have slammed a potential agreement, Trump has maintained a complete deal hasn’t been negotiated yet.
