From June 15 to 18, 2026, the U.S. and Iran reached a 14-point agreement that establishes a 60-day ceasefire, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, and the initiation of discussions regarding Iran's nuclear agenda. Despite American airstrikes that took out several sites in June 2025, Iran still possesses about 400 kilograms of uranium enriched to 60%. The agreement does not cover Iran's missile development or its network of proxy groups in the region. Israel has expressed its disapproval of the deal. A set of technical discussions planned for June 18 in Switzerland were unexpectedly delayed. There is considerable ambiguity surrounding the execution of this agreement, especially in terms of sanctions relief and the nuclear issue.
