Former US President Donald Trump has reportedly requested modifications to the proposed peace agreement with Iran, seeking tougher conditions. He claimed that Iran has agreed not to develop nuclear weapons, while Iran insists the US must make concessions and will not back down from its red lines.
The story is significant due to the ongoing high-stakes negotiations between the US and Iran over nuclear weapons, which have global security implications. Simultaneously, the controversy surrounding the 250th Independence Day celebrations highlights political polarization within the US and the challenges of unifying national events in a divided political climate.
Trump referred to cancelling artists as 'third-rate' or 'third class'.
