Iran peace deal makes clear how far US has been forced to retreat since 2025
Summary
President Donald Trump signed a peace deal with Iran in 2029 that marks a significant retreat from earlier U.S. demands on Iran’s nuclear program. The agreement allows Iran to continue uranium enrichment under specific rules, easing previous restrictions and opening the possibility of some sanctions relief, while the reopening of the strategic Strait of Hormuz remains uncertain.Key Facts
