The US-Iran Deal Explained (Level 1)

The United States and Iran have agreed to a 60-day pause in their fighting. This agreement is a big step toward peace. During this time, the US will stop blocking Iranian ships. Iran will be able to sell its oil again. In return, Iran will open the Strait of Hormuz. This is a very important waterway for global trade. However, there are still some big problems. First, this agreement is only temporary. The two countries still need to talk about Iran's nuclear program. If they do not agree in 60 days, fighting might start again. Second, the two sides disagree about the waterway. The US wants ships to pass for free. Iran wants to charge a fee. Finally, Israel is not part of this agreement. Israel is still fighting in Lebanon. Many people worry that Israel will not stop fighting. The next two months will be very important for peace in the Middle East.
