Charles Kupchan, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations, said that while he believes the U.S. and Iran could reach some kind of agreement on the Strait of Hormuz, a comprehensive peace agreement on Iran's nuclear program and other core issues remains a distant prospect. He said, "I think it's possible for the two sides to establish a framework for reopening the Strait of Hormuz. It's possible. But I don't think they've reached a real agreement on the nuclear issue. Absolutely not. It's still a very long way off, and even whether it can be achieved is still questionable."

Alan Ayr, a distinguished fellow for foreign policy at the Middle East Institute in Washington, stated that the truly important negotiations currently taking place are between Iran and Oman over the Strait of Hormuz, not between the US and Iran over a peace agreement.

President Trump has threatened to destroy Iran five or six times, but each time he backed down at the last minute. I think it's hard to believe that negotiations are taking place, and it's hard to believe that Trump is reaching an agreement with Iran on the nuclear issue or the Strait of Hormuz."
