US President Donald Trump on Saturday (local time) announced that an agreement with Iran has ‘largely been negotiated,’ and added the Strait of Hormuz will be opened as part of the agreement.
He announced in a Truth Social post and wrote, “An Agreement has been largely negotiated, subject to finalization between the United States of America, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the various other Countries, as listed. Separately, I had a call with Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu of Israel, which, likewise, went very well. Final aspects and details of the Deal are currently being discussed and will be announced shortly. In addition to many other elements of the Agreement, the Strait of Hormuz will be opened.”
His remarks came shortly after he held a phone call with Gulf leaders to review the latest proposal that Iran and Pakistan sent. The US President said that he had a “very good call” with leaders of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Pakistan, Turkiye, Egypt, Jordan, and Bahrain.
He elaborated that the call was concerning the Islamic Republic of Iran and “all things related to a Memorandum of Understanding pertaining to peace.”
This is a developing story. More details awaited.
