Trump Signals Willingness to Drop Iran Nuclear Demands to Focus on Hormuz Strait
In private discussions, U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed readiness to abandon his previous comprehensive nuclear deal demands with Iran.

This shift comes amid increasing Iranian rigidity and less than three months before the U.S. midterm elections.

Middle East expert Mona Yakoubian noted that these demands complicate the administration's ability to secure a dignified exit from the conflict.
