The discussions were held under a memorandum of understanding to extend a tenuous ceasefire from April for at least another 60 days. During the talks, the parties agreed to a roadmap toward a final deal within 60 days and established a mechanism to ensure safe passages for commercial ships through the contested Strait of Hormuz.
