Vice President JD Vance holds a press briefing with reporters at the White House on Thursday.
President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Wednesday each signed a memorandum of understanding aimed at developing a permanent peace deal to end the war between their two nations, officials said.
The signing came three days after Vice President JD Vance and Iranian Parliamentary Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf digitally signed the same document, and hours after Trump mused about whether it was a wise idea for him to personally sign the document.
