Trump Says U.S. and Iran Will Sign Agreement on June 14

President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that the United States and Iran plan to sign an agreement on June 14, according to reporting by NBC News correspondent Julie Tsirkin.

Trump stated that the deal is expected to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping channel between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. The waterway handles roughly one-third of global seaborne trade and has been a flashpoint in U.S.-Iran tensions.

The agreement includes measures addressing Iran's nuclear weapons program, Tsirkin reported. Details about the specific provisions remain limited based on available information.

This announcement marks a potential shift in U.S.-Iran relations after years of escalating tensions under the Trump administration. In 2018, Trump withdrew the United States from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, a multilateral nuclear agreement negotiated during the Obama administration. That decision triggered a cascade of new sanctions against Iran.

The Strait of Hormuz closure or restricted access has been a recurring concern for global energy markets and international commerce. Iran has at various points threatened to close or restrict passage through the waterway in response to U.S. sanctions and military presence in the region.

No additional details about the agreement's terms, timeline for implementation, or what prompted the reported reversal in negotiations were immediately available.
