On June 17, 2026, U.S. President Donald Trump and Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi signed a 14-point memorandum of understanding aimed at resolving ongoing conflicts between the two nations and bringing an end to the Middle East war. The agreement includes provisions for Iran to dilute its enriched uranium and allows the country to sell oil, thereby facilitating significant economic relief for Tehran. In return, the U.S. has committed to altering its stance on sanctions and reopening the Strait of Hormuz.
Trump characterized the agreement as a "strong deal," emphasizing that it could avert a potential global recession. During the signing ceremony, which took place over a dinner in Versailles, the U.S. president expressed optimism regarding the potential outcomes of the deal. Critics, however, have raised concerns about the effectiveness and reliability of the agreement, and the potential for a resurgence of military action if the terms are not fully implemented within a specified timeframe. The deal is presented as an interim arrangement, a pathway to a more comprehensive agreement similar in some respects to the Obama-era nuclear deal, though specific comparisons between the two remain difficult.
