U.S. President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian have signed an interim agreement aimed at ending hostilities between the two countries and creating a pathway toward a broader peace settlement. The agreement establishes a 60-day negotiation period during which both sides will work to resolve outstanding issues through diplomacy.

According to details released by officials, the agreement calls for an immediate halt to military operations and is intended to reduce tensions across the region. The deal also outlines steps to restore maritime activity in key waterways and improve regional stability.

Both governments described the agreement as an important first step toward a more comprehensive settlement, while acknowledging that significant negotiations remain ahead.

One of the most important elements of the deal involves the reopening and protection of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial route for global oil and gas exports.

Officials say efforts will be made to restore normal commercial shipping and ensure safe passage for vessels using the strategic waterway. The development has been welcomed by energy markets and international observers concerned about supply disruptions.

The agreement does not fully resolve disputes surrounding Iran's nuclear activities. Instead, both countries have agreed to continue discussions during the 60-day negotiation period.

Reports indicate that future talks will focus on nuclear oversight, sanctions, regional security arrangements, and other unresolved issues. International monitoring agencies are expected to play a role in technical consultations as negotiations continue.

World leaders and diplomatic observers have broadly welcomed the breakthrough, viewing it as an opportunity to reduce regional tensions and avoid further conflict.

However, analysts caution that the current agreement remains an interim framework rather than a final peace treaty. Success will depend on whether negotiators can transform the ceasefire into a lasting and comprehensive agreement over the next two months.

With military operations paused and diplomatic channels open, attention is now focused on the upcoming negotiations.

The next 60 days are expected to be critical as officials from both countries attempt to address long-standing disagreements and build on what many consider the most significant diplomatic breakthrough in U.S.-Iran relations in decades.
