Trump inks Iran deal, shifting focus to Hormuz, 60-day talks

US and Iran sign ceasefire deal reopening Strait of Hormuz and launching 60-day nuclear talks

New York Post — WorldThe United States and Iran signed an agreement to end hostilities, reopen the Strait of Hormuz to international shipping, and begin 60 days of follow-on nuclear negotiations. Trump called off earlier threats to strike Iran, declaring the strait would be permanently toll-free, though Iran almost immediately closed it again briefly before it reopened. The deal emerged from chaotic back-channel talks and Iran's government framed it domestically as a victory over the US and Israel. Confusion persisted in the hours after signing, with some reports of the strait being temporarily closed again.
