The US administration is currently weighing a temporary agreement aimed at extending the fragile ceasefire with Iran. President Donald Trump has initiated deliberations with his advisors to decide on the approach to solidifying the deal, which includes reopening the strategically critical Strait of Hormuz.

Although a tentative consensus was reached, Iranian officials stress that actions, rather than promises, are pivotal. Unresolved issues surrounding Iran's nuclear capabilities remain central, with Trump emphasizing the necessity for Iran to abandon any nuclear weapon ambitions. The discussions also touch on lifting specific sanctions while ensuring regional peace, notably involving conflicts between Iran, Israel, and Hezbollah.
