Agreement may be close to happening
Just this Sunday, the newspaper "New York Times" reported that the two countries reached a preliminary understanding: Iran would reopen the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for the delivery of its nuclear arsenal.

The information is attributed to an American official close to the negotiations.
The United States has imposed a blockade on Iranian ports since April, after Tehran practically paralyzed traffic through the Strait of Hormuz in response to American and Israeli attacks against Iran, which began on February 28.
Hormuz is a strategic corridor for world oil trade - before the conflict, around 20% of global production passed through there. The temporary closure put pressure on commodity prices around the world.
In this Sunday's post, Trump also makes reference to the nuclear agreement signed by Barack Obama in 2015. The pact provided for limiting the Iranian nuclear program in exchange for the removal of international sanctions.
Critics of the agreement, including Israel, claim that part of the released resources was used by the Iranian regime to finance armed groups in the Middle East.
