U.S. President Donald Trump stated that Washington and Tehran have reached a peace agreement. He also announced the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. This was reported by "Komersant Ukrainian", citing his post on the social media platform Truth Social.
“The agreement with the Islamic Republic of Iran has entered into force. Congratulations to everyone! With this, I fully authorize the unimpeded opening of the Strait of Hormuz and, at the same time, authorize the immediate lifting of the naval blockade by the U.S. Navy. Ships of the world, start your engines. Let the oil flow!” Trump wrote.
Just 10 minutes earlier, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif also announced on social media platform X that the U.S. and Iran had reached an agreement.
“After intensive negotiations, we are pleased to announce that a peace agreement has been reached between the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran,” he said.
According to Sharif, both sides have declared an immediate and definitive cessation of hostilities on all fronts, including Lebanon.
“The official signing ceremony will take place on Friday, June 19, in Switzerland,” the Pakistani prime minister added.
He also noted that following the conclusion of the agreement, mediators will hold a series of meetings this week. These discussions will lay the groundwork for technical negotiations and the official signing ceremony.
According to RBC-Ukraine, details of the agreement between Iran and the U.S. became known shortly after it was reached. Specifically, the memorandum between the two warring countries provides for: a 60-day ceasefire, including a halt to Israeli military operations in Lebanon; the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the restoration of free navigation in the region (which may not happen immediately—ed.); and a negotiation process between Washington and Tehran regarding the latter’s nuclear program, including the disposal of enriched uranium.
In addition, the U.S. will commit to discussing the easing of sanctions and the release of frozen Iranian funds, provided Tehran fulfills the conditions.
