    Bets on when Iran says there is no deal?

    I think they’ll announce that Trump has agreed to negotiate on their proposed plan.

      The 10 point plan Trump mentions is all Iran demands. Iran with Pakistan confirmation has said the ceasefire is in place with Iranian control over SoH shipping.

        From the bbc:

        And even if Iran does fully open Hormuz – without conditioning passage on tolls or other payments – its ability to control the key geopolitical chokepoint is more clear now than ever.

        In a statement after Trump’s ceasefire message, Iranian foreign minister Seyed Aragchi said that Iran would halt its “defensive operations” and allow safe passage through the Hormuz “via coordination with Iran’s armed forces”. He added that the US had accepted the “general framework” of the Iranian 10-point plan.

        That plan includes the US withdrawing its military forces from the region, lifting economic sanctions on Iran, paying compensation for war damages and allowing Iran to maintain control over Hormuz. It is hard to imagine Trump actually agreeing to any of those conditions – a sign that the next two weeks of negotiations could be treacherous.

        Not exactly what I would call agreeing to open the straight.
