On day 117 of the ongoing conflict, Iran and the United States are in disagreement over nuclear inspections and the strategic Strait of Hormuz, as negotiators aim to finalize a deal within the next 60 days. Additionally, the US Senate has taken steps to limit the war powers of the executive branch, according to Al Jazeera.

Iran is observing the developments of ongoing negotiations with the United States, which are expected to be complex and protracted. This comes amid internal political disputes within Iran, leading to a cautious optimism among its citizens regarding the potential outcomes of the deal.

Leaders from Iran and the US have expressed optimism about the progress made on the first day of talks in Switzerland, according to Al Jazeera. However, they remain divided on several key issues that are crucial to the negotiations.

Rafael Grossi, the head of the UN nuclear agency, announced that inspectors will visit sites in Iran as part of a war deal. He stated that the agency is currently "working on modalities" for these inspections. However, an Iranian minister indicated that such access would only be granted as part of a final agreement with the United States.

Iran has characterized the ongoing diplomatic negotiations aimed at resolving the Middle East conflict as a 'declaration of US defeat.' As talks progress, negotiators are preparing for further discussions to address the situation in the region, according to The Citizen.

President Trump has challenged the Iranian foreign ministry's assertion that there are no intentions to permit International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) nuclear inspectors into the country. This dispute highlights ongoing tensions regarding Iran's nuclear program and international oversight.
