Tentative 60-day agreement reached on Iran, pending Trump’s approval, U.S. sources say

A tentative agreement has been reached for a 60-day memorandum of understanding to extend the ceasefire and continue negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program, but it’s pending President Trump’s approval, U.S. sources told the White House press pool.

Axios first reported the tentative agreement. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is expected to brief reporters Thursday afternoon.

In the past, Mr. Trump has been critical of potential agreements. On Wednesday, he insisted any deal has to be a good one.

“I think they are starting to give us the things that they have to give us, and if they do, that’s great, and if they won’t, then the man on my left is going to finish them off,” Mr. Trump said of Iran on Wednesday. “Attack them.”
