Trump says a deal with Iran and opening of Strait of Hormuz are ‘largely negotiated’

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) — President Donald Trump says a deal with Iran, including opening the Strait of Hormuz, has been “largely negotiated.” He announced this on social media after talks with Israel and other allies. The deal, described as a “Memorandum of Understanding,” still needs finalization. It aims to end the war and includes two-month negotiations on Iran’s nuclear program. The U.S. would end its blockade of Iran’s ports. Iran has signaled “narrowing differences” in the talks. Both sides emphasize their key positions and warn of risks if attacks resume. Iran describes the draft as a “framework agreement” for more talks.
