Claim 7: “Vice President JD Vance said in an interview on Tuesday that he feels "extremely hopeful" that Iran will agree to a deal that includes a commitment”
SINGLE SOURCE
While web results confirm JD Vance's role as VP and his general comments on the Iran conflict (e.g., 'not a forever war' and hoping Iran makes the 'right response'), none of the provided evidence explicitly quotes him as being 'extremely hopeful' that Iran will agree to a deal including a specific commitment. The evidence shows him backing Trump's response and discussing oil flow, but not the specific phrasing of the claim.
