S. would fully lift its naval blockade of Iran, which would take effect immediately, according to Iran International.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">Iranian officials also thanked Pakistan and Qatar for their roles in facilitating talks and helping broker the agreement.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">The memorandum is reportedly scheduled to be formally signed on June 19 and would launch a 60-day negotiating period focused on Iran\u2019s nuclear program and the terms of a wider long-term agreement between the two countries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">Congratulations to all! \u201d Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">\u201cI hereby fully authorize the toll free opening of the Strait of Hormuz, and, simultaneously herewith, authorize the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade. Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">In a follow-on post, the president said, \u201cThis Great Deal will bring Peace and Security to the whole Region. Many presidents have tried to make Peace with Iran, and all have failed before me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">\u201cWith the opening of the Strait upon the signing of the Deal on Friday, for purposes of mine removal, oil will flow on both ends again for the Region, and the World! \u201d he noted further.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">German Chancellor Friedrich Merz praised the agreement as well.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">\u201cThis can pave the way for a reinvigorated global economy and a more secure Middle East. It is crucial to implement it with determination,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">U. S. Ambassador Michael Waltz on Sunday praised Trump for securing the deal that will also enhance U.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">\u201cFrom the very beginning, @POTUS maximized our leverage, limited casualties and brought credible military force to ensure the best possible outcome,\u201d he added before offering his congratulations to Trump.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">\u201cThis is one hell of a way to celebrate a birthday. Congratulations, Mr. President,\u201d Waltz said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">According to Reuters, Brent crude futures fell $3. 58, or 4. 1%, to $83.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">75 per barrel by 12:04 a. m. GMT.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">U. S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures dropped $4.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">01, or 4. 7%, to $80. 87 per barrel.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-6 text-lg leading-relaxed text-justify\">The sharp decline followed an earlier selloff at the end of last week, with both major oil benchmarks already down more than 3% on Friday as traders increasingly bet that easing tensions in the Middle East would reduce the risk of disruptions to global energy supplies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump Makes Announcement Regarding Iran Peace Deal President Donald Trump announced Sunday, ahead of a White House UFC event, that a peace deal with Iran had finally been reached.
