## Prediction

In the next 24 hours, Iran is likely to deliver a cautiously positive, provisional response to the U.S. peace and nuclear-limit framework, signaling acceptance of core principles (no nuclear weapon, monitored limits) while reserving technical and sequencing details for further negotiation. Trump’s repeated public claim that Iran has agreed to nuclear limits and that talks have been 'very good' indicates Tehran has already conveyed informal assent on key points. Tehran will frame its response domestically as a victory preserving dignity while emphasizing sanctions relief and maritime security. This will reduce immediate fears of direct U.S.–Iran military escalation even as regional proxy conflict continues.

## Drivers

- Multiple alerts that U.S. officials expect an Iranian response within 24–48 hours
- Trump statements that Iran agreed it 'cannot have a nuclear weapon' and that a deal is 'very possible'
- Emerging trend of U.S.–Iran confrontation shifting from kinetic escalation to coercive negotiation over Hormuz
- Iranian media narrative that Strait of Hormuz transit is safe
