  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nU.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that he was not yet satisfied with Iran's offers to end the Middle East war, despite saying at the weekend that a deal was close. Speaking at a White House cabinet meeting, Trump said he was in no rush to reach an agreement. His comments came after Iranian state television reported details of what it claimed was a draft memorandum of understanding.\n\n#### What did Trump say about the Iran deal on Wednesday?\n\nTrump said Iran wants a deal but has not yet met U.S. expectations. \"We're not satisfied with it, but we will be,\" he said, adding that the alternative was to \"finish the job,\" a reference to resuming military operations paused in April. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, seated beside Trump, said there had been \"some progress and some interest\" in the talks.\n\n#### What did Iranian state TV report about a draft agreement?\n\nIranian state television said earlier Wednesday that a draft outline included commitments to lift the naval blockade on Iran, restore traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, and withdraw U.S. forces from the Gulf. The White House rejected the report entirely, calling it a \"complete fabrication.\" Trump did not address the Iranian report directly during the cabinet meeting.\n\nTrump said he would not accept any arrangement in which Russia or China took possession of Iran's enriched uranium stocks, rejecting one option that had been proposed. He also said \"nobody,\" including Iran, would control the Strait of Hormuz, and dismissed reports of a joint Iran-Oman toll system for the waterway. Trump appeared to confirm, however, that a deal under discussion could defer the question of uranium stocks while focusing first on opening the strait.\n\n#### How do the Iran talks connect to midterm elections and the Abraham Accords?\n\nTrump dismissed the idea that Iran could outlast him by waiting for the November midterm elections. \"They thought they were going to outwait me... I don't care about the midterms,\" he said. His Republican Party currently controls Congress, with the midterms set to determine whether that majority holds.\n\nTrump also suggested the Iran deal could be linked to his push for Saudi Arabia and other Muslim-majority countries to normalize ties with Israel through the Abraham Accords. \"I'm not sure we should make the deal if they don't sign,\" he said. The comment added a new condition to already complex negotiations, as the U.S.-Israel war on Iran entered its fourth month.",
