According to Trump, Washington and Tehran are negotiating for a "lasting peace". Through an agreement, the USA can "avoid" military attacks on Iran, he claims.

We will not create any radioactive clouds in Iran. I believe we are approaching a possible agreement without having to do it (attack), says Trump in Qatar, the second stop on his four-day trip to the Arabian Peninsula.

Iran has basically agreed to the terms.

Immediately after Trump's statements, the oil price fell.

Yesterday, Ali Shamkhani, an advisor to Iran's leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, told NBC News that Iran is ready to sign an agreement with the USA in exchange for lifting American sanctions.
