United States President Donald Trump has stated that a peace agreement with Iran could be reached within one week. He added that if Iran does not soon agree to open the Strait of Hormuz, fresh attacks will follow.
In a telephone interview with a US television channel, President Trump said Iran would face further strikes if it fails to reach a prompt agreement to reopen the strait.
Earlier, the US President noted that positive talks had taken place between Washington and Tehran over the past 24 hours, with Iran reviewing the American proposal to end the conflict. Trump stated that the prospects of an agreement were favourable, adding that it was quite possible for both sides to reach a settlement.
The US president also said that the United States would be receiving enriched uranium from Iran, stressing that Iran must not be permitted to possess nuclear weapons.
He added that discussions were ongoing with those inside Iran who favour a deal, and that it remains to be seen whether Tehran agrees to the proposed agreement.
