US Vice President JD Vance acknowledged that many details of the US-Iran peace deal remain unresolved, according to The Jerusalem Post. The remarks, made Monday, come as Washington presses forward with diplomatic efforts on a nuclear and regional framework with Tehran — a process that has drawn mixed reactions from Israeli officials. Vance noted that some in Israel 'like the agreement,' a statement that echoes his earlier comments reported by The Zioneer. This follows a thread of US statements attempting to bring Israel on board: on June 13, a senior US official said Washington believes a deal has been reached; earlier on Monday, Vance said the US speaks directly with Iran and that Israel 'will have a seat at the table.' Israeli security and political echelons remain divided, with some officials voicing concerns over the deal's implications for Israel's freedom of action against Hezbollah and Iran's nuclear ambitions. What remains open is the final text and timeline — Vance previously said a signing could come next week or take months.
