The Strait of Hormuz is a vital chokepoint for global oil supply. Its closure due to an American blockade had significant economic and geopolitical implications.
A senior US official on Monday said that President Donald Trump and Vice-President J.D. Vance had signed the memorandum of understanding electronically with Iran to formally reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end the American blockade of Iranian ports.
The official also claimed Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf signed the document on Tehran’s behalf.
“The president wanted to sign it personally because he wanted to show his dedication to the process and dedication to seeing this through to a successful resolution,” the official added, speaking on background.
According to US officials, the formal signing ceremony will still take place on Friday in Switzerland.
Speaking to reporters during a bilateral meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron in Evian, France, Trump said the Strait was already partially open and would be “completely open” by Friday.
“The deal’s all signed,” he added. “They’re doing a little hunting for a couple of mines that they’ve already found, but essentially, ships are starting to go out now.”
