Trump’s US‑Iran ceasefire deal reverts to prewar conditions, raises costly nuclear ‘indivisibility’ hurdle

The ceasefire agreement was negotiated under former President Donald Trump. It restores the situation that existed before the recent conflict began. Analysts describe the return to prewar conditions as financially burdensome. The deal does not resolve outstanding nuclear concerns between the United States and Iran. Experts warn that those nuclear questions encounter an “indivisibility problem.” The indivisibility problem suggests that key issues cannot be separated for separate negotiation. This complication could stall progress on a comprehensive nuclear settlement. Observers will watch how both sides address the cost and the nuclear impasse.
