US President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf electronically signed a deal to end the Middle East war, a senior US administration official said.The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said: “The President wanted to sign it personally because he wanted to show his... dedication to bring this through to a successful resolution.”Trump later said that the Strait of Hormuz would be “completely open” from Friday.Speaking at the start of bilateral talks with French President Emmanuel Macron ahead of a G7 summit in France, Trump added that the US would not “need much help” on keeping the strait open, after London and Paris proposed a joint naval mission.Trump said that the strait was “already partially opened”, although there was “hunting” going on to ensure it was de-mined.He hailed the deal made with the Islamic Republic, saying “the main thing is Iran will not have a nuclear weapon”.After the killing of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on the first day of the US-Israeli war on February 28, Trump declared Washington was getting on “well” with the new leadership in Tehran.He said: “The first set [of leaders] is gone, the second set is gone and we found the third set to be very smart... We ended up making a deal.”He did not specify which leaders he was referring to.He added: “I think a lot of great things are going to happen in the Middle East right now.”- AFP
