Summary

The U.S. is pulling back the curtain on Iran with a major sanctions rollback, aiming to end the war, reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and slash energy prices. Signed June 17th, the deal phases out all U.S. sanctions over time—with a 60-day Treasury waiver for now. Iran can now sell oil and access billions in frozen funds, but uncertainty lingers: banks stay cautious, disagreements persist over escrow controls, and Trump’s wild idea of spending oil money only on U.S. farm goods? Iran said no. Plus, Iran will now invoice oil in U.S. dollars—a huge pivot. It’s a complex, high-stakes balancing act, and whether this fragile peace holds remains to be seen.
