During an event in Las Vegas, U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the war in Iran is progressing well and could end soon, claiming that Washington and Tehran are nearing a peace agreement concerning Iran's enriched uranium. He mentioned that Iran has agreed to return its uranium stockpile, a crucial element in the negotiations, although no details have been provided, and Iran has not confirmed this agreement. Concurrently, the U.S. has threatened to resume military actions, including airstrikes and a naval blockade, if Iran does not accept the proposed deal. Amid these tensions, a ceasefire has been established between Israel and Lebanon, although the situation remains precarious. Trump also highlighted ongoing diplomatic efforts, including talks between Pakistan and Iran, while emphasizing that any agreement must prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Despite his optimism, the conflict remains volatile, with military threats and fragile ceasefires complicating the situation.
