Trump says deal with Iran, including opening Strait of Hormuz, is 'largely negotiated'

Key Points:

• President Donald Trump announced that a deal to end the war with Iran, including reopening the Strait of Hormuz, has been "largely negotiated" following calls with regional allies and Israel, with final details pending.
• The agreement, described as a "Memorandum of Understanding pertaining to PEACE," involves the U.S., Iran, and other regional countries, but does not currently address Iran's nuclear program.
• Pakistani-led mediation efforts have brought the U.S. and Iran close to an official declaration ending the war, with plans for two-month negotiations on nuclear issues and lifting the U.S. blockade on Iranian ports.
• Iran confirmed the draft as a "framework agreement" focusing on ending the war and lifting sanctions, while excluding nuclear issues from current talks; Tehran also emphasized continued support for its regional allies.
• Despite ongoing ceasefire since April 7, tensions remain high, and Iran's military officials warned that renewed U.S. attacks would provoke a stronger response, while the conflict’s broader regional aims remain unresolved.
