Donald Trump said an agreement to permanently end the war in Iran and reopen the Strait of Hormuz had “largely been negotiated” and would “be announced shortly”.
In a post to his Truth Social account on Saturday, the US president said he had concluded a “very good call” with leaders of Gulf countries and other US allies in the Middle East. He said a separate call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had also gone “very well”.
“Final aspects and details of the deal are currently being discussed, and will be announced shortly,” Trump wrote. “In addition to many other elements of the agreement, the Strait of Hormuz will be opened.”
