President Donald Trump defended the interim peace deal he’s reached with Iran and said it could get signed as soon as tomorrow, amid pushback from Republican hawks at home who object to the billions of dollars set to flow Tehran’s way.
The so-called memorandum of understanding could be signed “shortly, tomorrow, maybe the next day,” Trump said Wednesday at a press conference in France where he’s attending a summit of the Group of Seven advanced economies.
A draft seen by Bloomberg foresees the rapid reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, along with immediate sanctions waivers for Iranian oil. Talks on nuclear issues, and potential further financial gains for Iran, will follow.
Bloomberg Washington Correspondents Joe Mathieu and Kailey Leinz deliver insight and analysis on the latest headlines from the White House and Capitol Hill, including conversations with influential lawmakers and key figures in politics and policy. On this edition, Joe and Kailey speak with:
- Republican Senator Bill Hagerty of Tennessee.
- Bloomberg Washington Correspondent Tyler Kendall.
