US President Donald Trump says he is preparing to make a final decision on a potential agreement with Iran as talks reach a critical stage.
In a post on social media, Trump said he would meet in the Situation Room to decide whether to proceed with the deal.
“I will be meeting now, in the Situation Room, to make a final determination,” he wrote, reiterating that any agreement must ensure Iran never obtains nuclear weapons and must include the reopening of shipping routes in the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump said Iran “will complete the immediate removal” of mines in the waterway and indicated the United States would lift its naval blockade on Iranian ports, allowing oil shipments to resume.
It remains unclear whether Iran has accepted those terms or whether any easing of restrictions has already taken place.
