The United States and Iran are considering an $8 billion deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. US President Trump is expected to meet with the Qatari prime minister on Monday to discuss Iran's proposal: the US would unfreeze $8 billion in exchange for the strait being reopened. The agreement includes ending Iranian attacks on shipping in the Gulf and lifting related U.S. restrictions, but does not address Iran's nuclear program. Vice President Vance pushed for the agreement, but it faced opposition from some senior government officials. (Source: Israel Hayom)
