“The United States and Iran have signed a framework agreement ending their monthslong war, but neither side had published the deal’s full text, and on Monday American and Iranian officials continued to make conflicting statements about its terms. The agreement’s immediate scope was focused primarily on ending military attacks and allowing traffic to resume through the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s vital shipping lanes. American and Iranian officials acknowledged that they had put off discussions of their most serious disagreements until a later round of talks. The agreement did not appear to fulfill the objectives President Trump promised at the start of the conflict in February: destroying Iran’s military capabilities, abolishing its nuclear ambitions and toppling its theocratic leadership.” (06/15/26)
