Latest: The negotiations between Iran and the United States have been extended by one day.
The talks are extremely difficult, with the U.S. demanding a very high price: the removal of 400 kilograms of 60% enriched uranium from Iran. This batch of 400 kilograms of uranium is precisely the same stockpile that the U.S. military failed to seize during its previous military operation.
The U.S. also demands "to manage the Strait of Hormuz according to its own will." On Saturday, during the negotiation day, the U.S. Navy conducted a test to assess whether Iran's sensitivity toward the strait had diminished—but encountered a firm rebuff!
Regarding "Lebanon," they offer no commitments whatsoever.
The Americans certainly won't be able to reach the uranium. The Strait of Hormuz won't return to its pre-war state anytime soon.
Iran has not budged. Yet Vance still agreed to extend the negotiations by one day.
Evidently, President Trump gave his deputy a strict order: no matter what, a result must be achieved from these talks!
Iran fully understands the message and agrees to the extension!
Overall impression: There’s hope.
