The United States and Iran have announced a peace agreement. This comes after about four months of conflict in the region.
A key part of the deal is the expected reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. This waterway is very important for global oil and gas shipments.
US President Donald Trump and senior Iranian officials confirmed the agreement. Pakistan's Prime Minister, Shehbaz Sharif, helped mediate the talks. A signing ceremony is planned for June 19 in Switzerland.
However, some details about the deal are still being clarified. Both sides have different ideas about when the Strait of Hormuz will fully reopen.
Recent events, like an Israeli strike in Lebanon, complicated the talks. Important issues like Iran's nuclear program are not yet part of this initial agreement.
