While many also support a preliminary US-Iran agreement,less than half believe US operations in Iran have been successful or worth the cost. Recent peace talks, involving the Trump administration and mediated by Qatar and Pakistan, aim to resolve tensions, especially around Iran\u2019s nuclear program.
