Paris/Tehran/Islamabad (Terror Monitor) — A major development has emerged in ongoing tensions between the United States and Iran, as U.S. President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian have reportedly signed an initial peace agreement.
According to reports, the agreement includes an extension of the ceasefire for 60 days, the reopening of maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, and the launch of negotiations on Iran’s nuclear program.
U.S. President Donald Trump, speaking to reporters after a dinner in Paris, said the agreement had been signed, calling it part of efforts to reduce tensions in the region.
On the other hand, reports suggest that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has also approved the agreement, although Tehran has not yet issued an official detailed statement confirming the deal.
