Trump Signs 14-Point Peace Deal to End Iran War

US President Donald Trump and Iran signed a 14-point preliminary peace agreement on Wednesday, according to confirmations from the White House and the Iranian Foreign Ministry. The deal establishes a $300 billion reconstruction fund for Iran and the lifting of US sanctions in exchange for Iran renouncing nuclear weapons and ensuring fee-free passage for trade ships through the Strait of Hormuz.

Axios reporter Barak Ravid reported on X that Trump signed the document digitally during a dinner in Versailles. The US President is currently in France for the G7 summit. Because the agreement is already in effect, a ceremony previously planned for Friday at the Bürgenstock in Switzerland has been canceled.

What are the economic terms of the US-Iran peace deal?

The agreement focuses heavily on financial relief and maritime trade. According to the deal, the US will lift sanctions against the Islamic Republic and release frozen funds. A $300 billion fund will be established for the reconstruction of Iran.

The Trump administration stated that no US taxpayer money will flow to the “Mullah-regime” through this fund. In return, Iran has agreed to allow trade ships to pass through the Strait of Hormuz without paying fees.

Did You Know? The 14-point peace plan was signed digitally by the presidents of both countries, bypassing the need for the formal ceremony originally scheduled in Switzerland.

How was the agreement signed and finalized?

The process moved faster than anticipated. The White House and the Iranian Foreign Ministry both confirmed the agreement is already in force. The digital signing occurred while Trump was attending the G7 summit in France.

Iran issues NEW threat to US as Trump touts peace deal

The deal includes a critical security concession: the renunciation of nuclear weapons by Iran. This move serves as a primary pillar of the 14-point plan signed on Wednesday.

Expert Insight: Samantha Carter notes that the trade-off here is clear: the US is exchanging financial liquidity and sanctions relief for guaranteed maritime access to the Strait of Hormuz and a nuclear-free Iran. The use of a reconstruction fund rather than direct aid allows the US to facilitate economic recovery while maintaining a political distance from the regime.

What happens next for the US and Iran?

Negotiations are expected to continue because many details of the agreement remain unresolved. The signing of the 14-point plan is a preliminary step rather than a final settlement.

The stability of the peace depends on strict adherence to the terms. Trump has already threatened to resume bombings if Iran fails to comply with the agreement.
