Meanwhile, on the issue of the US-Iran deal, the White House did not announce any decision following US President Donald Trump’s meeting with his national security team in the Situation Room on Friday, despite the President earlier indicating that the discussion would help him make a “final determination” on issues related to Iran, CNN reported.

In a statement issued after the meeting, a White House official said the discussions had concluded after approximately two hours. “The Situation Room meeting has concluded and lasted approximately two hours. President Trump will only make a deal that is good for America and satisfies his red lines. Iran can never possess a nuclear weapon,” the official said.

Trump had announced the meeting shortly, stating that its purpose was “to make a final determination.” He also outlined several conditions that he expected Iran to accept as part of any potential agreement aimed at ending the conflict.

“Iran must agree that they will never have a Nuclear Weapon or Bomb,” Trump declared. “The Hormuz Strait must be immediately open, no tolls, for unrestricted shipping traffic, in both directions. All water mines (bombs), if any, will be terminated (we have removed, through detonation, numerous such mines with our great underwater mine sweepers. Iran will complete the immediate removal and/or detonation of any mines that are left, which will not be many)!” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

Later, Iran said that no final understanding had been reached, rejecting suggestions that Tehran would act under external pressure, Iranian state media Press TV reported. (ANI)
