"No, we're not thinking about nuclear weapons."

"We have no intention of obtaining these weapons at all."

"Iran doesn't have nukes, isn't building nukes, and hasn't made the decision to build nukes."

"Iran doesn't have a bomb, and doesn't appear to be trying to make a bomb."

"They are definitely going for a nuclear weapon there is no question."

"They can have [a nuclear weapon], you know, in a matter of months, I would say."

Iran could produce a nuclear weapon "within a few months, less than a year."

"We may be entering a new era of protracted conflict—with Iran at the center of it."

"Any deal will be at best fragile, or at worst impossible."

"Tehran probably perceives the ceasefire as a pause in hostilities rather than anything permanent, and it is preparing for renewed conflict accordingly."

"A lasting settlement remains unlikely because Iran wants continued leverage over the Strait of Hormuz and cannot accept an outcome portrayed as a U.S. victory. "

"A comprehensive settlement is unlikely to emerge quickly."

"There is a possibility that this ceasefire could pave the way for a more permanent deal, but it is more likely this will be a temporary and fragile understanding that will, in the best-case scenario, prevent renewed war through the end of this administration."

"I think that this probably will lead to a cessation of hostilities, but it's unlikely to lead to a full agreement that really satisfies everything that on the one hand, the Trump administration would like and on the other hand that the Iranian regime would like, because I think that the two sides just still sit too far apart."

“The most likely negotiation outcome is an ambiguous version of the cease-fire continuing indefinitely, which, while unseemly, is better than the alternative,”

"I suspect it will hold because both sides have a strong economic incentive to get energy flowing to global markets."

"There is a 99% chance that U.S. x Iran will reach a permanent peace deal by December 31, 2026."

Will the US and Iran Establish a Lasting Ceasefire Before 2027?

U.S. Central Command announced that American forces began striking Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps targets in Iran on Tuesday, citing recent IRGC attempts to attack commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and U.S. service members deployed to the region.

Trump warned on Truth Social that if Iran retaliates, it will face strikes that are "much harder and broader in scope," adding that a larger attack is "waiting in the wings." All eight Iranian missiles fired at a U.S. base in Jordan were intercepted, according to Trump.

Explosions were reported across southern Iran coinciding with the U.S. strikes, including in Konarak, along the Qeshm coast and in parts of Bandar Abbas and Sirik. Iranian state media said a U.S. strike hit a wedding ceremony in Sirik, killing four people, including two children.

Saudi Arabia condemned Iran for striking its crude carrier Sidr near the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, killing two Filipino seafarers. Egypt and Qatar called on the U.S. and Iran to return to negotiations, warning that continued escalation threatens regional security.

Trump proposed on Wednesday renaming the Strait of Hormuz "Trump Strait," writing on Truth Social: "Now that we have it under U.S.A. control, should we change the name Hormuz Strait to TRUMP STRAIT?" The strait is an international waterway spanning Omani and Iranian territory.

Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz remains well below prewar levels, though U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright told CNBC that more than 17 million barrels of oil transited the strait on Monday, described as a wartime record. Around 20 million barrels per day passed through before the war began Feb. 28.
