U.S. and Iranian negotiators reached a tentative deal to extend their ceasefire by 60 days and to launch negotiations on Iran's nuclear program, pending President Donald Trump's sign-off. The pact would ease restrictions on the Strait of Hormuz, effectively reopening the vital shipping lane after recent tightened controls. If approved, negotiators will use the 60-day window to seek a broader end to hostilities and establish a framework for monitoring Tehran's nuclear activities, temporarily lowering the risk of wider regional conflict.
