The U.S. and Iran presented differing narratives Tuesday on whether U.N. inspectors could visit nuclear sites and if Tehran had any interest in buying American crops, underscoring a complex start to the 60-day negotiations.<\/p>\n

Mr. Trump insisted Tuesday that Iran would agree to inspections of its nuclear sites as part of peace talks \u201cdespite their protestations and false statements to the contrary.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf they did not agree to this, there would be no further negotiations!\u201d Mr. Trump said on social media.<\/p>\n

Vice President J.D. Vance said Monday that Iran agreed to the inspections as both sides met in Switzerland for the start of a 60-day negotiations window aimed at producing a final deal to end the U.S.-Iran conflict.<\/p>\n

But on Tuesday, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei denied that Tehran agreed to accept visits from the International Atomic Energy Agency.<\/p>\n

Mr. Trump also said Iran\u2019s frozen funds would be placed in escrow so the country could buy American corn, wheat and soy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese are things that are desperately needed by Iran. This is a humanitarian crisis, and I feel it is necessary to help, NOW, before it is too late. Talks are going well!\u201d Mr. Trump posted.<\/p>\n

Again, however, Iran denied the claim, saying it had no current demand for U.S. crops.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is interesting that the philosophy and goal of the war, which was the destruction of the Iranian civilization and the collapse of Iran, has become enriching American farmers,\u201d Mr. Baghaei said.<\/p>\n

The differences in perspective underscore the complex road ahead for the negotiations and the implementation of the provisions in the already agreed-upon memorandum of understanding.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo make a real estate analogy, Trump confused a blueprint with a finished skyscraper,\u201d said Michael Rubin, director of policy analysis at the Middle East Forum. \u201cThe Iranian strategy has always been the same. Obfuscate, delay, and stall.\u201d<\/p>\n

The U.S. and Israel launched a military operation against Iran on Feb. 28 to prevent Tehran from gaining a nuclear weapon, foster regime change and rein in its support for terror proxies in the Middle East.<\/p>\n

Iran retaliated with strikes on Persian Gulf nations and by closing the Strait of Hormuz, causing energy shortfalls and higher oil prices.<\/p>\n

The U.S. and Iran last week signed a memorandum of understanding to end the fighting, reopen the Strait of Hormuz and enter 60 days of talks about ways to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear bomb.<\/p>\n

The agreement also lifted the U.S. blockade of Iranian ports and required the U.S. Treasury Department to issue waivers that allow Iran to sell its oil.<\/p>\n

U.S. critics of the deal said it offered too many up-front concessions to Iran and that Tehran would use delay tactics to string along the American side.<\/p>\n

\u201cMuch as we hope for successful negotiations ending the war, American leverage is essential. We\u2019re losing bargaining power at the outset by immediately lifting sanctions,\u201d Sen. Richard Blumenthal, Connecticut Democrat, said Tuesday on X.<\/p>\n

The administration says the deal is performance-based, so Iran will see no benefits unless it agrees to curtail its nuclear program.<\/p>\n

Underscoring his carrot-and-stick approach, Mr. Trump said Tuesday he would not block Iranian ports, citing Iran\u2019s \u201cconcession\u201d to inspections, but that ships would remain in the region in case he needs to impose the blockade again.<\/p>\n

Oil prices dropped after the first-stage deal, settling at about $75 per barrel compared to over $100 at the height of the war. Gas prices in the U.S. continued to fall, with drivers paying an average of $3.93 per gallon on Tuesday compared to over $4 a week ago.<\/p>\n

The International Maritime Organization said it finalized an evacuation plan for 11,000 seafarers who have been stranded in the region because of violence around the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n

Mr. Trump said the U.S. economy will soar again because of the recent deal. He added that 19 million barrels of oil have moved through the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis large-scale operation will be carried out in close cooperation with Iran, Oman, all other coastal States in the region, the United States and the maritime industry,\u201d the organization, a specialized agency of the United Nations that oversees the safety of international shipping, wrote in a statement. \u201cWe have secured the necessary safety guarantees and have thoroughly verified the conditions for safe navigation to support these operations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Iran on Tuesday moved to allow for more commercial ships to travel through the Strait of Hormuz, while securing some sovereignty over the waterway, which has long been considered international waters.<\/p>\n

Iran and Oman held talks on Tuesday aimed at creating an agreement on future \u201cmanagement of navigation\u201d in the strait. According to a joint statement from the two countries, the agreement would include \u201cassociated costs in line with international standards,\u201d implying that the two countries could levy fees on commercial vessels traveling through the waterway.<\/p>\n

Iranian officials have repeatedly said during the course of the war with Israel and the U.S. that it would retain control over the Strait of Hormuz even after the war concludes, and would charge fees for ships attempting to travel through.<\/p>\n

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday that the U.S. would not allow any country to charge fees in the Strait of Hormuz, citing international law.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo country is allowed to charge tolls or fees on an international waterway. That\u2019s existing international law. That\u2019s the way it is in international waterways all over the world, and that\u2019s the way we expect it\u2019ll be here. So I don\u2019t think we have anybody to convince around here in that regard,\u201d he told reporters soon after arriving in Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n

Renewed fighting in Lebanon on Tuesday also highlighted the peace deal\u2019s fragility. While the memorandum\u2019s first provision calls for a ceasefire on all fronts, including in Lebanon, the Iran-backed Hezbollah and the Israeli military have repeatedly clashed over the past week.<\/p>\n

The Israel Defense Force said it engaged militants after identifying an active Hezbollah cell close to troops in the Ali al-Taher Ridge, close to the city of Nabatieh, which is part of Israel\u2019s \u201csecurity zone\u201d in southern Lebanon.<\/p>\n

Hezbollah said in a statement carried by Iranian media on Tuesday that the attack was a clear violation of the ceasefire agreement it reached with Israel on Sunday. The attack also targeted civilians, Hezbollah said.<\/p>\n

Iran has previously threatened to abandon negotiations with the U.S. if Israel does not halt attacks on Hezbollah and remove its forces from Lebanon.<\/p>\n

Israel, while agreeing to a ceasefire on Sunday, said that its military is prepared to strike Hezbollah at any time if threatened or attacked first. Israeli officials have also ruled out withdrawing troops from southern Lebanon, where they occupy about 232 square miles.<\/p>\n

The Israeli military has said the occupied territory is intended to act as a buffer zone to protect citizens in northern Israel, who have come under infrequent rocket attacks from Hezbollah since March. Over 1 million people have been displaced as a result of Israel\u2019s destruction of homes and continued military operations in Lebanon, according to UNICEF.<\/p>\n
