Peace Deal Could Take Days to Nail Down

“Negotiations between the United States and Iran appeared to be continuing on Monday after President Trump played down hopes of an imminent breakthrough and a senior U.S. official said final approval of an agreement toward ending the war could take days to finalize,” the New York Times reports.

“American and Iranian officials have presented clashing descriptions of the emerging agreement, compounding doubts about whether or not the deal could get over the finish line. But both sides have said the deal could reopen the Strait of Hormuz, the critical waterway for global oil in the Persian Gulf that Iran has blockaded.”
