US-Iran deal and Strait of Hormuz: Ceasefire extension, reopening of strait, and global reactions
US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian have signed a memorandum of understanding extending a ceasefire in the US-Iran war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz. The 60-day deal, mediated by Pakistan, includes Iran's commitment to dilute its highly enriched uranium stockpile and a US waiver of sanctions, allowing Iran to export oil freely. The agreement was signed at the Versailles Palace in France, drawing mixed reactions. Iran stated it will charge service fees for vessels crossing the Strait of Hormuz, a proposal the US has repeatedly rejected, while shipping has already begun to resume with 18 vessels transiting the strait within hours of the deal.

الخلاصة
The US-Iran interim deal represents a significant diplomatic breakthrough, but many unresolved issues remain, including Israel's continued operations in Lebanon, Iran's missile programme, and the proposed Strait of Hormuz service fees. Global reactions range from cautious optimism to criticism, with Republicans divided and oil prices falling as supply concerns ease. The coming 60 days will be critical for further negotiations.

Status of the Strait of Hormuz toll/fees
| Outlet | Claim |
|---|---|
| Al Jazeera English (video) | Iran says it will charge a 'payment for services' in the Strait of Hormuz. |
| Radio Free Europe | Under the deal, Iran has agreed to toll-free transit for 60 days. |
- Most outlets do not detail the role of Pakistan as mediator or the specific terms regarding frozen Iranian assets.
- The proposed service fees for the Strait of Hormuz are covered by Al Jazeera (video) and Radio Free Europe, but largely ignored by Fox News and The Independent.
The coverage of the US-Iran deal shows a clear divide between outlets that portray it as a successful Trump-led breakthrough (Fox News) and those that highlight unresolved tensions and critical details (Al Jazeera, The Independent). The economic impacts on oil prices and shipping are widely reported, but the political and security implications—especially concerning Israel's role in Lebanon and Iran's missile programme—are downplayed in conservative-leaning media. The lack of a signed physical copy and the conflicting accounts of the 14-point MoU indicate that the deal remains fragile and subject to interpretation.
