Thursday's Final Word
President Trump has claimed that an agreement with Iran has been reached and a deal will be signed, likely in Europe, as soon as this weekend. However, Iran has not confirmed any such agreement, with a semi-official news agency citing an informed source close to Iran's negotiating team as saying that no text for an initial memorandum of understanding has been approved. The details of the potential agreement and its implications for the region remain unclear, with many questions still unanswered, including the enforcement mechanism to keep Iran from cheating and the impact on Iran's support for regional terror proxies.
