US President Donald Trump confirmed on Thursday (June 5) that the immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuz — a vital route for 20% of the world's oil — will be part of any peace agreement with Iran, but maintained he will not negotiate conditions for Tehran to suspend its nuclear program. "You'll still find out what the Iran deal is about, but I can say that one of the points is the immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuz," Trump told reporters at the White House. ✓

"Vocês ainda vão descobrir sobre o que é o acordo com o Irã, mas posso adiantar que um dos pontos é a reabertura imediata do Estreito de Ormuz"
The statements come after months of mediated negotiations, with Iran signaling openness to discussions. In May, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei told IRNA news agency that a potential memorandum of understanding would establish "broad principles" before details are negotiated over 30 to 60 days, with "major disputes" still needing mediation. ?

"On Saturday, Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei described the latest proposal as a "framework agreement" or MoU that would first establish broad principles before details are negotiated over 30 to 60 days. "The trend this week has been towards a reduction in disputes, but there are still issues that need to be discussed through mediators."
Trump reiterated that he prefers diplomatic channels to obtain Iranian enriched uranium, but that "an agreement is not necessary" to take it. The US president stated that "only two countries can turn enriched uranium into powder, the US or China" — a technical claim that diverges from nuclear industry data, which points to five countries with commercial uranium conversion capacity. ✓

"não é necessário um acordo para tomar o urânio enriquecido, embora prefira a entrega por vias diplomáticas. "Somente dois países podem transformar o urânio enriquecido em pó, os EUA ou a China"
"Uranium enrichment requires uranium as uranium hexafluoride, which is obtained from converting uranium oxide to UF6. Conversion plants are operating commercially in Canada, China, France, Russia and the USA."
Regarding a possible meeting with Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, Trump said a meeting "can happen if a peace agreement is reached," but denied "wanting to meet" the ayatollah. The president warned that war would "restart immediately" if Iran attacks American soldiers, and showed optimism about parallel negotiations involving Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. ✓
