U.S. President Donald Trump holds a White House Situation Room meeting on a tentative proposal involving Iran and a possible extension of the ceasefire, but no final decision is publicly announced. Multiple outlets report that Trump previously said he would make a “final determination” on moving forward with the arrangement to extend the ceasefire and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Reporting across outlets indicates that the U.S. and Iranian negotiators have discussed a possible agreement, but it remains unsettled whether it will proceed.
CNBC and other coverage also note market reaction tied to Trump’s comments, including a fall in oil prices after he said he would make a final determination. Al-Monitor and other accounts of Trump’s Truth Social post describe conditions he says any deal would need to include, such as Iran’s agreement not to develop a nuclear weapon, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, removal of sea mines, lifting of the U.S. blockade, and steps related to Iran’s highly enriched uranium. Al-Monitor also reports Iranian sources criticizing Trump’s statements. As of the latest reports, uncertainty continues because Trump’s meeting does not produce a conclusive outcome.
