U.S. and Iran Near Historic Deal
Description
Tensions are easing as the U.S. and Iran edge toward a historic deal to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz—though with twists and delays. Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif says a breakthrough is within hours, even preparing for an electronic signing. Trump claimed Sunday’s signing was set, but Iran’s foreign ministry shot that down—though a deal may still come soon. This isn’t the first false dawn: earlier this week, Iran clashed with U.S. and Israeli forces, threatening full-scale war. The conflict, which began February 28, has crippled Persian Gulf energy flows, with a fragile ceasefire holding since April 7. The proposed deal includes a 60-day window to address Iran’s nuclear program—a major U.S. and Israeli concern—while Tehran insists its efforts are peaceful. Also on the table: reopening the vital Hormuz Strait, phased sanctions relief, and unfreezing Iranian assets. But Lebanon’s volatile situation, where Israel battles Iran-backed Hezbollah, remains unresolved.
