WASHINGTON, August 5 (HS/RIA Novosti) - US President Donald Trump said he expects more details on US-Iran negotiations in 48 hours.

We’re moving along very nicely. You’ll find out. We’ll know in 48 hours, Trump said on Tuesday night, as quoted by ABC News.

The president also noted that lot of progress has been made regarding a potential deal on the Strait of Hormuz.

Could happen. Tomorrow or the next day, he added.

Late on Saturday, Trump said he had canceled strikes on Iran in light of a pending settlement deal, the contours of which include opening the Strait of Hormuz and agreements on the nuclear program. The New York Times reported that the agreement provides for Iran and Oman to reach a deal on reopening the Strait of Hormuz within 60 days.

On July 12, Iran announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz until the end of US interference in the region, following another wave of exchanges of strikes between the parties to the conflict. The next day, Trump said the United States would become a guardian of the Strait of Hormuz. He also reinstated the US blockade of Iranian ports.
