US President Donald Trump announced that a “great settlement” has been reached with Iran to end months of conflict in the Middle East. He said final documents are being completed and a signing ceremony could take place in Europe within days.
According to Trump, the agreement ensures that Iran will never develop a nuclear weapon. He also said the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global oil route, would reopen once the deal is signed.
Trump praised several countries involved in negotiations, including Pakistan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE. He specifically commended Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir for their role in supporting diplomatic efforts.
Iranian sources indicated that Tehran is likely to approve the agreement, although some issues remain unresolved, including access to frozen Iranian oil revenues.
Despite ongoing military exchanges between the US and Iran, both sides appear to be moving toward a political settlement aimed at ending the three-month conflict and easing regional tensions.
