A senior US administration official told reporters that Washington believes an agreement with Iran has been reached, according to Israel Today’s diplomatic correspondent. No details of the deal's terms were provided. The statement follows days of reports about a final text, the involvement of Iran's leadership, and US-Israel coordination.
A senior US administration official told reporters that Washington believes it has secured a nuclear deal with Iran, Israel Today's diplomatic correspondent reported at 17:35 Jerusalem time. The official said, 'We think we have a deal,' but did not elaborate on the terms or timeframe. The remark is the most direct US confirmation of a framework agreement to date.
As The Zioneer reported on June 12, a diplomat from a mediating country said the US and Iran had reached agreement on a text, with Vice President Vance possibly traveling to Geneva for a signing. Senior US officials have also stated that Israel, once it reviews the full deal, will be comfortable with the arrangement—assertions made after direct dialogue between President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu. Another US official noted broad consensus across Iran's political and security establishment for the emerging deal.
What remains unclear: whether the text has been formally approved by Iran's supreme leader and whether the US considers a signing ceremony imminent. The official's statement, attributed only to a 'senior US administration official,' has not been independently corroborated by Israeli or Iranian sources.
