Donald Trump Announces US‑Iran Nuclear Deal at G7 in Evian
At the G7 summit in Evian, President Donald Trump said the United States and Iran have reached a preliminary agreement that would prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. He announced that the text of the deal has been sent to Israel and will be made public, and that a formal signing is expected within days, with the memorandum to be signed at the Bürgenstock resort in Switzerland.
G7 leaders issued a joint statement supporting the agreement and pledging to help its implementation, highlighting a multinational initiative led by France and the United Kingdom to secure maritime traffic in the Hormuz Strait. Trump warned that the United States would resume bombing if Iran failed to comply. The announcement caused oil prices to fall, reflecting market optimism about reduced geopolitical tension in the region.
