Trump says Iran may not be able to reach a deal

President Donald Trump said at the NATO summit in Ankara that he doubts Iran’s negotiators can deliver an agreement, accusing them of lying and cheating. His remarks came as tensions rose after recent U.S. and Iranian actions made diplomacy more uncertain. The article says the bigger issue in Tehran is who actually has the authority to make and enforce a deal after the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Analysts cited in the piece say power appears split among Revolutionary Guard commanders, senior officials, and political figures such as Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf. Experts quoted by Fox News said the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps may now be the main power center, even though Iran continues to send negotiators to the table. The article also highlights disagreement between Washington and Tehran over the Strait of Hormuz, with each side interpreting a recent memorandum differently. That gap, analysts say, could make any future agreement difficult to implement.
