US President Donald Trump said on Monday that a preliminary agreement to end the war in the Gulf has been signed by the US and Iran, though details have yet to be made public and both countries said a permanent truce is yet to be negotiated.
“The deal’s all signed,” Trump said after he arrived in France for the G7 summit, also attended by Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
US Vice President JD Vance will attend a formal signing ceremony in Geneva on Friday.
What does the agreement cover?
The agreement would extend a tenuous ceasefire announced in April by another 60 days and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran has effectively blocked since the US and Israel attacked Iran in February.
