What happened
Donald Trump and Masoud Pezeshkian signed a 14-point memorandum of understanding in June to end hostilities between the United States and Iran. The agreement allows for the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and lifts the US naval blockade on Iran. It established a 60-day framework for negotiating a permanent settlement on regional issues and Iran’s nuclear program.
Why it matters
The agreement follows a period of economic warfare that caused global energy prices to rise sharply and led to market instability. The resolution of conflict in the Middle East could reduce risk premiums and allow for better economic planning in the region.
An interim deal regarding Gulf exports was previously announced, which impacted oil flow and revised price forecasts.
