According to Barak Ravid of Axios, citing sources familiar with the matter, U.S. President Donald Trump told several Arab leaders during a phone call today that, should a U.S.-Iran agreement be finalized, he would like them to join a broader peace framework with Israel. Trump has long promoted an expansion of the Abraham Accords, including the possibility of Saudi-Israeli normalization and a wider Arab-Israeli rapprochement initiative. According to the report, however, the proposal was not well received by the other participants on the call, with Trump’s request reportedly met with silence.

According to reports from N12, the emerging framework for a potential agreement between the United States and Iran could include several major provisions: 1. Iran would clear naval mines placed in the Strait of Hormuz. 2. The United States would gradually ease its naval blockade. 3. Iran would regain the ability to freely export oil. 4. Frozen Iranian assets would be released incrementally in exchange for Iranian concessions. 5. Negotiations would continue regarding limits on Iran’s nuclear program. 6. Iran has reportedly agreed in principle to give up its uranium stockpile and suspend uranium enrichment activities. However, Iranian state-affiliated media outlets have denied reports concerning points five and six, disputing claims that Tehran agreed to restrictions involving its uranium stockpile or enrichment program.

Iran has warned that a proposed agreement with the United States “will be completely cancelled” if Washington insists on linking access to more than $100 billion in frozen Iranian assets to additional nuclear concessions, according to Tasnim News Agency. Tehran reportedly rejects any such linkage. Meanwhile, the White House has walked back earlier claims that a deal was “largely negotiated,” with senior U.S. officials now cautioning that the agreement could still collapse. U.S. President Donald Trump also appeared to shift tone, moving from saying a deal could come “shortly” yesterday to emphasizing today that “time is on our side,” while insisting that the blockade and pressure campaign against Iran would remain fully in place. Tehran, however, continues to maintain that lifting the blockade is a prerequisite for any final agreement.
