US and Iran close in on nuclear deal as Vance reports progress

The United States and Iran are nearing a framework agreement on Iran's nuclear program, according to multiple reports. US Vice President JD Vance said talks have made progress but that a final deal is not yet sealed, as both President Donald Trump and Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei must still give their approval.

Details of the emerging deal include a reported $300 billion fund for Iran and a halt to fighting in Lebanon. However, analysts warn that the agreement could leave Israel worse off and that Trump's room to maneuver is narrowing. Kazakhstan has also offered to take custody of Iran's uranium stockpile, according to the Financial Times.
