Summary
Seyed Hossein Mousavian, a former Iranian diplomat and nuclear negotiator, said a preliminary U.S.-Iran agreement could help end the war President Donald Trump says he has moved to stop.
Mousavian’s reaction came in an NPR interview focused on Trump’s deal, framing the accord as an early step rather than a finalized settlement.
His comments carry weight because he spent decades representing Iran and took part in past nuclear negotiations, offering an insider Iranian view on the emerging agreement.
The interview adds rare public Iranian perspective to a fast-moving diplomatic effort whose broader terms, implementation and durability were not detailed in the report.
