  "textContent": "\n\n\n\nThe United States and Iran agreed a peace deal on Sunday, declaring an \"immediate and permanent\" end to military operations on all fronts, including Lebanon. Mediator Pakistan announced the agreement, with a formal signing ceremony scheduled for June 19 in Geneva, Switzerland. The deal signals the apparent conclusion of more than three months of war in the Middle East.\n\n#### What are the terms of the U.S.-Iran peace deal?\n\nThe U.S.-Iran peace deal calls for an immediate and permanent halt to military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon. Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif confirmed the agreement, while U.S. President Donald Trump authorized the opening of the Strait of Hormuz and the removal of the U.S. naval blockade on Iranian ports.\n\n#### What did Trump say about the Iran peace deal?\n\nTrump confirmed the agreement on his Truth Social network on Sunday, saying the deal with Iran was \"now complete.\" He simultaneously authorized the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and ordered the removal of the U.S. naval blockade. U.S. Vice President JD Vance said he planned to attend the Geneva signing ceremony and indicated Trump may also attend.\n\n#### What role did Pakistan play in the U.S.-Iran peace deal?\n\nPakistan served as a key mediator in the negotiations that led to the U.S.-Iran peace deal. PM Shehbaz Sharif announced the agreement early Monday Islamabad time, thanking both sides \"for finding a diplomatic solution to the conflict.\" Sharif also acknowledged the support of Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkey in the mediation effort.\n\n#### What happened with Israel before the deal was announced?\n\nThe path to the agreement was complicated by an Israeli airstrike on the suburbs of Beirut earlier on Sunday. Trump publicly criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the strike, saying it had delayed the deal. Iran had long insisted that any agreement must cover the parallel conflict in Lebanon, where Israel has been pursuing a campaign against Iran-backed Hezbollah.\n\n#### How has the war affected the global economy?\n\nThe conflict, which began in late February with U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran, had significant economic consequences worldwide. Iran's near-blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital corridor for global oil and gas supplies, drove up energy prices and disrupted supply chains for goods including fertilizer. Vice President Vance said the deal would help \"drive down the cost of energy\" and create long-term prosperity in the region.\n\n#### What are the remaining sticking points in the U.S.-Iran deal?\n\nThe full contents of the U.S.-Iran peace deal have not been made public, and both sides have offered conflicting accounts of what was agreed. Key unresolved issues include control over the Strait of Hormuz, which Tehran had insisted must remain under Iranian authority. The fate of Iran's nuclear program, particularly its stockpile of highly enriched uranium, also remains a central question. Trump said on Saturday that the U.S. would retrieve and destroy the nuclear material once the situation stabilized.",
