Trump’s Iran deal faces a long, uncertain road to checks and compromises

Trump’s administration touts a peace deal aimed at curbing Iran’s nuclear ambitions and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, but essential elements—enrichment limits, verification, and the full text—are still not settled. Iran has not dismantled its enriched uranium or agreed to a comprehensive inspection regime, and the 60‑day window for finalizing specifics contrasts with Obama-era timelines. While the U.S. hints at possible early sanctions relief and access to frozen funds, the deal remains fragile and many observers doubt a final agreement will emerge.
