The United States waived sanctions on Iran for 60 days from Monday after the first talks under a nascent peace deal and officials reported calm in Lebanon after fighting that had prompted Iran to declare the Strait of Hormuz closed.
After a weekend that had seemed to put the week-old peace agreement in jeopardy, including threats from US President Donald Trump to restart the war if Iran closed the strait, tanker traffic started to pick up through the waterway and oil prices resumed their slide.
US Vice President JD Vance said his talks with Iranian officials in Switzerland had laid a good foundation for a final peace deal, although Iran denied that it had begun discussions of its nuclear program. #iran #usa #hormuz #middleeast #peacetalks
