President Donald Trump stated on Saturday that a deal with Iran aimed at de-escalating conflict in the Middle East is scheduled to be signed on Sunday. The announcement follows ongoing tensions in the region, particularly concerning maritime security. Trump indicated that the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz will be accessible to all vessels immediately following the signing of the agreement. Details of the deal remain undisclosed, but the promise of opening the Strait suggests a potential resolution to concerns over freedom of navigation. The Strait of Hormuz is a critical waterway for global oil supplies, and its closure would significantly disrupt international trade. This development marks a potential shift in US-Iran relations, which have been strained since the US withdrawal from the nuclear deal in 2018. Further information is expected after the signing ceremony on Sunday.
