[U.S. Treasury Secretary: Whether the U.S. and Iran Can Reach an Agreement Depends on 'What the President Wants to Do'] According to a report by Jinse Finance, on May 29, U.S. Treasury Secretary Besent stated at a White House press briefing on the 28th that whether the United States and Iran can reach a potential agreement depends on whether President Trump supports the agreement. Earlier that day, U.S. media cited officials reporting that U.S. and Iranian negotiators had essentially reached a consensus on the terms of a memorandum of understanding, pending final approval from Trump. Besent did not directly answer multiple related questions during the press briefing but instead said that 'both teams have been engaged in ongoing consultations' and emphasized that 'everything depends on what the president wants to do.' Besent noted that Trump has several clear 'red lines,' namely that Iran must surrender its highly enriched uranium, Iran cannot develop nuclear weapons, and the Strait of Hormuz must remain open.
