Rubio Tamps Down Expectations on Strait of Hormuz Agreement

Rubio said a peace deal could come within hours as India pressed for stable maritime trade and lower energy costs in the region.

  • Secretary of State Marco Rubio signaled a possible breakthrough regarding the Strait of Hormuz during a joint presser in New Delhi with External Affairs Minister Jaishankar, suggesting "in the next few hours the world will get some good news."
  • President Donald Trump announced on Truth Social that a peace agreement involving Iran is "largely negotiated" following conversations with Israel and regional allies, raising hopes of ending the three-month conflict.
  • Jaishankar emphasized India's strategic interest in regional stability and maritime commerce, noting India maintains strong ties with the United States, Iran, Israel, and the Gulf nations.
  • The Revolutionary Guard dismissed the remarks as "propaganda", while reports indicated Tehran only agreed to restore traffic to pre-war levels, which "in no way means a return to free passage."
  • Trump proposed a "Memorandum of Understanding pertaining to PEACE" to reopen the Strait, though Iran insists it will maintain control, creating a fundamental dispute over the agreement's scope.
