Ali Shamkhani, a top political, military and nuclear adviser to Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is one of the most senior Iranian officials to speak publicly about the ongoing discussions.
Main Idea: Iran says it could reach a nuclear deal with Donald Trump if the U.S. lifts sanctions and Iran is allowed to keep only peaceful uranium enrichment under strict limits.
Key Points:
A failed Trump-Iran deal could keep sanctions and nuclear tensions high, raising oil prices and market swings for US households and businesses.
A deal could reduce war risk and ease pressure on energy prices, which may help consumers and workers.
