When Will the Iran War End? Here's What Trump Has Said.
Trump said talks with Iran are in the final throes as negotiators work to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and block nuclear weapons.
At the NBA Finals in New York on Tuesday, President Trump told reporters a deal with Iran could be signed within two or three days, immediately reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
Despite Trump's claims the deal is in its 'final throes,' previous estimations have proven elusive, with the war continuing fifteen weeks past initial four-to-five-week projections.
Vice President JD Vance previously cited unresolved 'language points' regarding a 60-day ceasefire extension, though Trump posted on Truth Social that negotiations are proceeding at a 'rapid pace.'
Trump asserted he instructed representatives not to rush, maintaining 'time is on our side' while ensuring the agreement would prevent nuclear weapons.
Resolving Iran's 47-year conflict remains the president's priority, as he emphasized his objective to finally address the 'MESS' despite intermittent attacks since the April ceasefire.
