Trump's changes to the proposed deal lead to a week extension of U.S. -Iran talks

According to CNN, officials said Trump made changes to the proposed agreement with Iran after meeting with advisers on Friday that would extend the negotiation process for another week. The exact changes Trump requested were unclear, but officials said the president insisted on adding stronger language to Iran's nuclear commitments and its pledge to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. He also expressed concern about the economic relief measures the agreement may provide to Iran.<br /> In addition, Trump previously said that the United States would take over and destroy Iran's highly enriched uranium stockpile and said the agreement would not involve a financial exchange. However, Iran said that the current negotiations did not cover details of the nuclear program and insisted that any agreement must include funding arrangements. As the two sides are still haggling over the language of the agreement, it remains unclear how these differences will be resolved.
