Trump expects Strait of Hormuz to remain open and toll-free, citing Iran deal

The United States and Iran have reached an initial agreement to extend their ceasefire and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Trump expects the waterway to remain open and toll-free, which could stabilize global energy markets. While this deal aims to end the war, significant challenges remain. Specifically, unresolved nuclear issues continue to pose ongoing geopolitical risks, meaning that despite the preliminary accord, the stability of the region remains subject to these persistent tensions.
