US-Iran War News Live Updates: Ended War With Iran, Peace Deal By Weekend, Says Trump
US President Trump announced a near-complete deal to end the war with Iran, expected to be signed in Europe this weekend.
US President Donald said that a deal to end the war with Iran is nearly complete and is expected to be signed over the weekend in Europe, as he called off military strikes on the gulf nation hours after threatening to take control of its oil industry.
Trump, speaking to reporters at the Oval office on Thursday afternoon, said Vice President J D Vance is expected to attend the signing ceremony which could take place in Europe as soon as this weekend.
The US president said he has spoken to leaders of the Middle Eastern countries, including Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait and Pakistan, regarding the latest round of negotiations.
Later, addressing a tele-rally in favour of Georgia Lt Governor Burt Jones, who is running for the post of Governor, Trump declared that the US has ended the war with Iran.
Earlier, at the Oval Office, Trump said that the stock market "likes the deal" and there would be a signing quickly. He said the Strait of Hormuz would reopen once the agreement is finalised. Trump claimed that Iran has committed to permanently abandoning any effort to obtain a nuclear weapon.
On Thursday morning, Trump threatened to hit Iran "VERY HARD" and take over Kharg Island, Iran's oil export hub. A few hours later, he abruptly cancelled attacks, claiming progress in peace negotiations.
Trump's remarks about signing the peace deal with Iran over the weekend came at an event where he announced the restoration of commercial fishing in protected areas of the Pacific Ocean.
Over the past few weeks, Trump has repeatedly said that the US and Iran were close to a deal but a formal agreement remained elusive.

Iran War Live Updates: Iran Got Hit Hard Recently, Trump Says
When asked why he is so sure that the deal will be finalised this time, US President Donald Trump says, says, "...Because They (Iran) have taken a pounding like very few people could take, and they want to make the deal a lot more than I do. we could have done the other way, but it would have taken longer. They got hit very hard recently, as you know. And I don't like to have to do things that way, but I felt it was necessary.
It's a great deal for the US and for the Middle East, and I think ultimately great for Iran because they'll be able to build up their country... I really believe it's a regime change because I find these people to be much more rational than the people that are no longer with us.
We knocked out the first team of leadership, the second team of leadership. This is a different group. This is a different level. I think it's, frankly, a smarter level, and it's a level that has reason...
Everybody's approved the deal. Now we'll get it finished up, and hopefully that'll be done... Iran will in no way, or form have a nuclear weapon or purchase a nuclear weapon."
