SummaryThe Iran agreement may reflect concessions on sanctions and waterway management that the Trump administration previously ruled out.The concept of BATNA suggests President Donald Trump may have accepted an imperfect deal because the alternatives appeared worse than the available terms.Iran's model in such negotiations depends on controlling leverage over assets and setting a price rather than seeking compromise.AI-generated summary was reviewed by a CNN editor.Brett McGurk is a CNN global affairs analyst who served in senior national security positions under Presidents George W.
