Trump posted that the agreement with Iran 'is now complete', authorising 'the toll free opening of the Strait of Hormuz' and the immediate removal of the U.S. naval blockade, and Iran's Supreme National Security Council said the war would end 'immediately and permanently' on all fronts including Lebanon, with a formal signing set for June 19. U.S. officials later said Vance and Iran's chief negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf had signed the memorandum digitally that day, and Trump told reporters at the G7 in France on June 15 that the deal was 'all signed'.

Why it matters

An Israeli strike on Beirut that morning had threatened to derail the deal, and Iran said it would negotiate a final agreement only after verifying that the U.S. had ended hostilities, lifted the blockade and released frozen assets.
