So that's how the war looks from here.

Let's see how it looks from the Persian Gulf region.

About 1,500 ships are still waiting to travel through the Strait of Hormuz.

Okay, so what is in this agreement exactly?

NPR international correspondent Ava Traui is in the United Arab Emirates, joins us once again.

Hi there.

Okay, the president's statement over the weekend triggered these headlines that gave me the impression the war is over, but it sounds like the terms are not resolved.

So what is in the agreement?

OK, so this is some kind of interim deal or a deal to make a deal doesn't seem to address Iran's nuclear enrichment.

What is Iran giving up if it's not giving up the possibility of nuclear weapons?

I'm fascinated by all the points you just raised there.

One in particular, you say that Iran expects to get some of its many, many billions of dollars of frozen assets unfrozen to them.

This is something that enraged Republicans back in 2015 when the U.S.

made a nuclear deal with Iran that included some money to Iran.

And so

Now the Iranians seem to expect money again.

That's one issue here.

Another has to do with continuing the war in the region.

What do Arab nations, including the one where you are, the UAE, think about that?

And Perzia Batraoui, thanks as always.
