United States officials have unveiled the text of a framework agreement designed to bring an end to the war with Iran. The document, released in Washington, outlines a path toward de-escalation and peace, with key provisions addressing critical aspects of the conflict.

According to the details shared by U.S. government representatives, the agreement mandates the "immediate and permanent cessation of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon." This cessation is intended to take effect upon the signing of the accord, prohibiting further military engagements between the two warring parties.

Both sides commit under the agreement to "respect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the other state and refrain from any interference in the internal affairs of the other state." Furthermore, they pledge to "commence negotiations with the goal of reaching the final agreement within a maximum of 60 days," a deadline that can be extended by mutual consent.

Significant economic measures are also included, notably the "complete" lifting of the U.S. naval blockade against Iran within 30 days of the framework agreement's signing. The accord also assures safe and toll-free passage through the Strait of Hormuz for commercial vessels for 60 days. The U.S. also plans to reduce its military forces in the region to pre-war levels within 30 days of a final agreement's conclusion, in cooperation with regional partners.
