A deal to end the war with Iran has been described as largely negotiated, with finalization still underway. The draft agreement includes opening the Strait of Hormuz, which has been effectively closed since the war began. The agreement is being finalized between the United States, Iran, and other countries, with additional elements not specified. Trump said he spoke with leaders from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, Bahrain, Turkey, and Pakistan, and separately with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He stated that final aspects and details will be announced shortly, without giving a timeline. Earlier, he said the chance of a deal was 50/50 while threatening severe consequences if talks fail.
"“In addition to many other elements of the Agreement, the Strait of Hormuz will be opened,” Trump said, without specifying what the deal's “other elements” entailed. “An Agreement has been largely negotiated, subject to finalization between the United States of America, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the various other Countries,” Trump said in the social media post."
"“Final aspects and details of the Deal are currently being discussed, and will be announced shortly,” Trump said, without providing an exact timeline. Trump's optimistic statement came hours after he had told US outlet Axios that the chance of a deal was a “solid 50/50” while threatening to blow Iran “to kingdom come” if the talks fail."
"The US president said he had spoken with leaders from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan and Bahrain, as well as Turkey and Pakistan. He added that he had spoken separately with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu."
