The Trump administration is touting a newly announced agreement with Iran as a major diplomatic breakthrough, ending direct hostilities between the two countries and opening the door to broader negotiations. But while the deal establishes a framework for future talks, many of the most contentious issues between Washington and Tehran remain unresolved.

President Donald Trump announced the agreement Thursday following days of negotiations, describing it as an important step toward stability in the Middle East after weeks of escalating tensions.

The memorandum of understanding includes an immediate ceasefire between the United States and Iran, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to commercial shipping and limited sanctions relief for Tehran. The agreement also provides access to some frozen Iranian assets and establishes a 60-day negotiating window to reach a more comprehensive accord.
