US won't move troops despite 'signed' Iran deal, as doubts linger over Tehran's next move

Summary

The Trump administration is keeping approximately 50,000 troops stationed across the Middle East even after signing a new agreement with Iran, maintaining military readiness during a 60-day negotiation window. U.S. officials expressed caution about Tehran's intentions, signaling that the fresh deal, despite being signed, has not yet convinced the administration to scale back its military presence in the region. The decision reflects lingering skepticism about whether Iran will comply with the terms or make unexpected moves during the talks.
