Trump says deal to reopen Strait of Hormuz could come as early as Wednesday

U.S. President Donald Trump stated a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz could be announced by Wednesday or Thursday. Iran and Oman are nearing an agreement to establish shipping lanes controlled by Iran for entry and Oman for exit, with service fees for security and environmental protection. The Trump administration opposes Iranian control of the strait, which has been blocked by Iran's attacks since a U.S.-Israel attack in February.
