The United States and Iran appear to be close to an agreement to end the war and open the Strait of Hormuz.
President Donald Trump has said negotiations are proceeding “constructively,” but advised against rushing into a deal. Regional officials have revealed some details about the potential agreement, which, they say, would see Iran give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium.
The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz would occur in parallel with the U.S. lifting its blockade of Iranian ports. Global’s Reggie Cecchini reports from Washington, D.C., on what we know about the potential deal and why there’s some hesitancy from Republican lawmakers.
