Trump ends Iran meeting without announcing ‘final determination’ on deal President Donald Trump met in the White House Situation Room to make a final determination on a deal to pause the three-month-old Iran war, but concluded the meeting without announcing his decision. Trump had previously stated on Truth Social that Iran must agree to never have a nuclear weapon and that the Strait of Hormuz must be open for unrestricted shipping traffic for him to approve a deal. Iranian state news outlet Fars countered Trump’s assertions, claiming his statements contradicted the draft agreement’s provisions.
