—❗️🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: The United States is reportedly willing to agree on a 'loose framework' of a nuclear deal with Iran, rather than a fully detailed comprehensive agreement
According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump wants a deal and he wants it fast – with details being sorted out later. 'It's not like I have to give you 30 pages, they just can't have a nuclear weapon,' he said in Doha.
U.S. officials have repeatedly warned of a 'vague deal' with Iran, stating that the 'devil is in the details' and that a vague deal would strongly favor Iran. – Wall Street Journal

Vague framework = Iran dragging out the subsequent negotiations as long as we want
Which is positive for us.
We want negotiations (because it prevents / postpones war) but we don't want a deal.

U.S. President Donald Trump shakes hands with former terrorist Ahmad Al-Sharaa, current President of Syria, praising his 'strong and tough past'.
Al-Sharaa's 'strong past' includes being a member of Al-Qaeda, ISIS, Al-Nusra, Fateh Al-Sham, and HTS.
The U.S. State Department even had a $10 million dollar bounty on him.
Al-Sharaa also famously said that anyone who lived in the Arab or Islamic world in 2001 would 'be lying' if they said they 'weren't happy' with the 9/11 attacks.
