Trump to sign Iran deal Sunday, ending war and reopening Strait of Hormuz

President Donald Trump declared that a deal to end the war with Iran would be signed on Sunday, immediately reopening the critical Strait of Hormuz to all traffic. Trump made the announcement on his social media platform, Truth Social, stating, "The deal will be signed tomorrow, and immediately after its signing, the Strait of Hormuz will be OPEN FOR ALL."

The announcement follows Pakistan's statement that the agreement might be signed virtually within 24 hours, acting as a mediator. However, Iran's Foreign Ministry had previously dismissed the possibility of a Sunday signing, though it left the door open for a deal in the coming days. Trump asserted that the agreement would compel the Islamic Republic to abandon its nuclear ambitions, stating, "They no longer want a nuclear weapon, nor will they have one, not through purchase, development, or any other form of acquisition."

According to the U.S. president, the deal would not involve any "money exchange" with Iran. He also claimed the U.S. would gain access to enriched Iranian uranium for destruction. Trump expressed hope for long-term collaboration with Iran and the Middle East, but also issued a threat of a "definitive alternative" if the process did not proceed smoothly, hinting at potential military action.

Discrepancies exist regarding the deal's financial implications, with Tehran claiming it would lead to the release of frozen Iranian funds, a point denied by Washington. The U.S. administration maintains the agreement will ensure the complete reopening of the Strait of Hormuz without Iranian tolls and lay the groundwork for dismantling Iran's nuclear program. The conflict's end would also reportedly cease hostilities on all fronts, including Israeli actions in Lebanon.

We hope to collaborate with Iran and the entire Middle East for many years. Hopefully, this process will proceed quickly, easily, and without setbacks.
