AI Summary
Main Idea: President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a deal meant to end the war, reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and ease U.S. sanctions on Iran.
Key Points:
- The agreement calls for Iran to cut its enriched uranium stockpile in exchange for broad economic relief from the United States.
- The U.S. would lift sanctions, unfreeze Iranian funds and assets, and let Iran sell oil more freely.
- The deal says fighting should stop and the Strait of Hormuz should reopen, with safe passage for commercial ships for 60 days.
- The two sides still need 60 days of talks to reach a final deal, and Trump warned he could restart attacks if Iran does not follow through.
