Iran announces opening of Strait of Hormuz

This does not constitute the end of the war, but it’s better than the alternative:
The last-minute renewal of Russia’s sanctions exemption came as Iran announced earlier on Friday that the Strait of Hormuz, a vital waterway that once carried a fifth of the world’s oil, was completely open to all commercial ships.
President Trump celebrated the move on social media, claiming that “Hormuz Strait situation is over” and that Iran had agreed to never close the waterway again.
Iran made no such commitment. Its foreign minister, Seyed Abbas Araghchi, only went so far as to say that the waterway would be open “for the remaining period of cease-fire.” The cease-fire between the United States and Iran is set to expire next week with American and Iranian negotiators expected to meet for another round of peace talks in Pakistan soon.
It would help if Trump would stop lying about what the people on the other side of the negotiation have agreed to.
