Trump Says Iran War Will End Soon, Tehran Not Ready for Deal

The signal here is ambiguity, not resolution: a stated expectation of an imminent end to the conflict, paired with an admission that the other side is not yet ready to negotiate, and no terms or timeline attached.

The open question is whether any concrete framework emerges, since a deal described as always available but never specified offers little to anchor risk assessment on.
