Vance widens Iran-deal timing to days or months

Vice President JD Vance told CBS News the U.S. was very close to a long-term Iran nuclear deal, while saying it could happen within a week or take months. The comment broadens Trump's two-or-three-day deal framing after the helicopter and strike exchange.

Why this matters. The U.S. negotiating signal matters because markets and regional actors are pricing both Hormuz reopening hopes and renewed strike risk. The watchpoint is whether the White House converts the claim into a dated negotiating step after the U.S.-Iran exchange.
