Trump hints at a 20-year pause as Iran talks shift gears

President Trump indicated a 20-year moratorium on Iran’s nuclear program could be enough to seal a deal and end the war, marking a shift from his earlier stance that Iran should never enrich. He criticized Iran’s latest offer as insufficient, stressing that any guarantee must be stronger and that a deal should not require surrender. The remarks come amid ongoing behind-the-scenes talks and a Pakistan-brokered ceasefire framework, as Washington presses Tehran to surrender its nuclear material; Iran reportedly retains a stockpile of enriched uranium. No final agreement has been reached.
