WASHINGTON, May 24 (Xinhua) -- The White House thinks it could take several days for the deal's approval by Iran's leadership, according to a report from U.S. media Axios on Sunday.
While U.S. officials are optimistic that a deal will be signed within days, they also acknowledge it has not been finalized and could still fall apart, said the report, citing a senior U.S. official.
It is unclear whether the potential deal will lead to a lasting peace agreement that also addresses U.S. nuclear demands.
Earlier on Sunday, U.S. President Donald Trump said he has told his "representatives not to rush into a deal" with Iran because "time is on our side."
"Both sides must take their time and get it right," Trump wrote on his Truth Social, noting that the U.S. blockade on Iranian ports "will remain in full force and effect until an agreement is reached, certified, and signed." ■
