Iran America Agreement: Hardly any relationship in world politics has been as tense as America and Iran. For decades, sanctions, nuclear disputes, military confrontations and increasing conflicts in West Asia have characterized the relationship between these two countries. But now for the first time there are indications that the two countries are close to an agreement that could change the entire Middle East politics and the global oil market.
According to US officials and international media reports, talks between the US and Iran are now in the final stages. If this deal is completed, not only will the ceasefire be extended for 60 days, but big steps can also be taken like completely opening the Strait of Hormuz and allowing Iran to sell oil without any hindrance. The most important thing is that through this agreement, there is a possibility of starting new talks on Iran’s nuclear program.

What might the 60-day agreement change?
According to American media reports, both countries can sign an MOU i.e. Memorandum of Understanding. This initial agreement will currently be in force for 60 days, which can also be extended further. Several major points are said to be included in the draft deal:
- Mines planted in the Strait of Hormuz will be removed
- Movement of ships will be normalized
- America will ease some blockade on Iranian ports
- Iran may get relief in oil exports
- Efforts will be made to reduce tension in the area
If this happens, it could have a major impact on global oil supply, because the Strait of Hormuz is considered one of the most important oil trade routes in the world.
What happened on the nuclear programme?
The biggest dispute between Iran and America has always been regarding the nuclear program. Although final agreement has not been reached yet, some important indications have emerged in the talks. According to the draft agreement:
- Iran can assure not to make nuclear weapons
- There has been discussion on limiting uranium enrichment program
- There are signs of agreement on the removal of highly enriched uranium reserves.
According to reports, Iran has about 440 kg of enriched uranium. However, Tehran has refused to hand it over to America. Experts believe that if an environment of trust is created on the nuclear issue, it could be one of the biggest diplomatic changes in the last several years.
What are America’s terms?
At present, America does not seem to be in a mood to lift the ban completely. According to sources, Washington has made it clear that:
- relief from permanent sanctions
- Unfreezing Iranian funds
- give financial relief
Like, big decisions will be taken only when Iran fully implements its promises. During this 60 day period, US forces will remain in the area. A decision on withdrawal of troops can be taken only after the final agreement.
Issue of Israel and Hezbollah also included
This draft agreement is also said to include ending the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has expressed concern about this. Israel believes that softness towards Hezbollah could become a security challenge in the future. At the same time, American officials say that if Hezbollah attacks again or accumulates weapons, Israel will have freedom of action.
Which countries played a big role behind the scenes?
The active role of many Arab and Muslim countries has come to light behind this possible agreement. According to sources, US President Donald Trump recently held a conference call with leaders of many countries and discussed this deal. Be included in:
- uae
- saudi arabia
- Queue
- egypt
- Turkey
- Pakistan
These countries have played an important role in mediation between America and Iran. Especially the visit of Pakistan Field Marshal Asim Munir to Tehran is also being considered as a major link to take the talks forward.
Why is the world’s eyes on Sunday now?
The White House hopes that agreement can be reached soon on the remaining disputed issues as well. International media reports have claimed that this agreement can be formally announced by Sunday. If this happens, it will not just be a change in relations between America and Iran, but:
- global oil market
- middle east security

Its direct impact can be seen on everyone. The eyes of the world are fixed on the question whether America and Iran, which have been symbols of enmity for decades, are actually moving towards a new beginning.
