Trump says not to rush as details emerge of a potential Iran deal

CAIRO (AP) — Regional officials say the United States is close to a deal with Iran to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. President Donald Trump said negotiations are proceeding constructively but he advised not rushing into a deal. The regional officials say the agreement would see Iran give up its stockpile of highly enriched uranium. The strait’s reopening would happen in parallel with the U.S. lifting its blockade of Iranian ports. That would begin to ease the global energy crisis. The deal would also end the war between Israel and Hezbollah, though Israel remains concerned about Hezbollah’s threat.
