Despite the President&#39;s optimism, Iranian officials have signaled a more cautious timeline, suggesting a finalized pact may take several more days. The deal aims to secure a long-term ceasefire and establish an inspection regime to prevent Tehran from procuring nuclear weapons.<\/p>\n<p>The diplomatic breakthrough was nearly overshadowed by an <strong>Israeli Defense Forces (IDF)<\/strong> strike on <strong>Beirut<\/strong>, Lebanon, just hours before the scheduled signing. President Trump reportedly expressed extreme dissatisfaction with Prime Minister <strong>Benjamin Netanyahu<\/strong>, telling reporters that the strike &quot;should not have happened&quot; and questioning the timing of the military action. The strike killed at least three people and prompted a threat of retaliation from <strong>Iran\u2019s<\/strong> national security committee, though Trump insisted the peace deal remains &quot;on track.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>On the global stage, Trump utilized his 80th birthday to engage in significant &quot;birthday diplomacy,&quot; speaking with <strong>Russian President Vladimir Putin<\/strong>. According to Kremlin aide <strong>Yuri Ushakov<\/strong>, the two leaders discussed the vital importance of ending the war in <strong>Ukraine<\/strong>. Trump reportedly informed Putin that U.S. envoys <strong>Steve Witkoff<\/strong> and <strong>Jared Kushner<\/strong> will visit <strong>Russia<\/strong> soon to continue mediation efforts. Trump also held a &quot;substantive&quot; call with Ukrainian President <strong>Volodymyr Zelenskyy<\/strong>, with both leaders agreeing to meet at the <strong>G7 summit<\/strong> in France, scheduled for June 15\u201317.<\/p>\n<p>In <strong>Geneva<\/strong>, Swiss police were forced to deploy <strong>tear gas<\/strong> and water cannons as thousands of anti-G7 protesters clashed with authorities. The demonstrations, which drew an estimated 7,000 to 20,000 participants, resulted in property damage to banks and the torching of at least one vehicle. The unrest comes as <strong>G7<\/strong> leaders prepare to gather in nearby <strong>\u00c9vian-les-Bains<\/strong>, France, to discuss an increasingly unstable international environment.<\/p>\n<p>Domestically, Vice President <strong>JD Vance<\/strong> addressed his political future in a <strong>CBS<\/strong> interview, stating he will decide whether to run for president in <strong>2028<\/strong> following the <strong>2026 midterm elections<\/strong>. Vance noted that President Trump has been &quot;very supportive&quot; of his role as vice president. Meanwhile, <strong>Iran\u2019s<\/strong> president indicated that long-standing misunderstandings with <strong>Gulf<\/strong> countries are nearing resolution, further signaling a potential shift toward regional de-escalation if the U.S.-Iran deal is successfully ratified.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Key Takeaways President Trump announced a historic U.S.-Iran peace
