Trump is meeting with fellow G7 leaders and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky
0:19
after announcing what he says is a deal to end the conflict with Iran
0:23
with a formal signing set for Friday in Switzerland. I'm very happy to say very signed. The deal's all signed. And the strait is already partially
0:35
opened. So now that this is finished, we're going to be focusing on that, see if we can
0:41
get that one done. 25,000 people a month are dying, mostly soldiers, and that shouldn't happen

Iran's foreign minister says talks with the U.S. will move forward in two phases
1:10
with the first focus on ending the conflict, reopening the Strait of Hormuz
1:14
accessing frozen funds and reconstruction. Only after that, he says, will negotiators

don't fully line up with what Trump has been saying. The president has repeatedly said the
1:30
Strait of Hormuz is fully open and that Iran has already agreed to never develop a nuclear weapon
1:37
even as Tehran suggests, those issues remain part of future negotiations
