President Donald Trump announced Saturday that a peace deal between the U.S. and Iran is scheduled to be signed on June 14, 2026 [1].
The agreement aims to end a war in the Middle East that has lasted four months [2]. If signed, the deal would immediately reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global shipping lane, to all maritime traffic [1].
Trump shared the announcement through his Truth Social account. He said that the signing is set for Sunday and that the waterway would be accessible immediately following the event [1].
"The Deal is scheduled to get signed tomorrow, and immediately after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is open to all," Trump said [1].
The conflict has caused significant disruptions to international trade and regional stability. The Strait of Hormuz serves as a primary artery for global oil shipments, making its closure a point of extreme economic tension.
Regarding specific terms of the agreement, Trump mentioned the handling of certain materials. "The United States will eventually retrieve and destroy the material," Trump said [3].
While the president indicated a definitive timeline for Sunday, mediators and officials have previously noted that a preliminary peace deal could be signed within days [1]. The announcement follows months of heightened military presence and diplomatic maneuvering in the region to resolve the hostilities.
“"The Deal is scheduled to get signed tomorrow, and immediately after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is open to all."”
The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz is the most critical economic component of this agreement, as the waterway is a global chokepoint for energy supplies. A successful signing on Sunday would signal a rapid de-escalation of a four-month conflict, though the mention of 'retrieving and destroying material' suggests the deal involves specific disarmament or nuclear-related concessions.
