Senior Trump administration officials read out the terms of the U.S.-Iran deal to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz in a call with reporters on Wednesday.
Vice President Vance is slated to represent the U.S. at the official signing of the memorandum of understanding (MOU) on Friday in Switzerland, though President Trump said on Wednesday he may join, as he’s already in Europe this week for the Group of Seven (G7) summit.
Here’s what’s in the deal:
America and the Islamic Republic of Iran and their allies in the current war, by signing this M.O.U., declare the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon, and undertake from now on not to initiate any war or any military operation against each other, and to refrain from the threat or use of force against each other and ensuring the territorial integrity and sovereignty of Lebanon. The final deal will confirm the permanent termination of the war on all fronts, including in Lebanon and other provisions of this paragraph.
Point 2
The United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran undertake to respect each other’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and to refrain from interfering in each other’s internal affairs.
