Leaders at the Group of Seven summit on Wednesday threw their support behind U.S. President Donald Trump's tentative agreement with Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz and further extend a shaky ceasefire — even though he's offered scant specificity about how that would be implemented.

In a declaration issued overnight, the leaders called the deal a "historic opportunity to prevent Iran from acquiring any nuclear weapon and tackling the threats related to its regional and ballistic activities." The leaders said that they were "ready to contribute to its implementation," although neither the White House nor Iran has released the text of the agreement.

Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Tuesday that ending the war on all fronts, including Lebanon, was "the most important" issue in the peace deal with the United States announced the day before.

Iran's top negotiator Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf will attend the signing in Switzerland of the deal ending the war with the United States, an Iranian deputy foreign minister said on Tuesday.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday said he intended to run in elections scheduled for later this year, as he faced domestic criticism over his wartime leadership.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday that Israel's forces would remain in Gaza, Lebanon and Syria "for as long as necessary," hours after a deal was announced between Iran and the U.S. to end the Middle East war.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that the joint U.S.-Israeli military campaign against Iran had spared his country from what he described as the Islamic republic's threat of "nuclear annihilation".

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Monday the Strait of Hormuz would be fully open later in the week, after Washington and Tehran announced a deal to end the Middle East war.

US President Donald Trump said Monday that oil tankers were moving out of the Strait of Hormuz, apparently on a route near to Oman, following a peace deal with Iran.

The U.S.-Iran agreement to conclude the Middle East war is a significant strategic setback for Israel and underscores its waning influence in Washington, Israeli analysts said.

Although the accord, announced by Pakistan early Monday, remains incomplete and is expected to be finalized within 60 days, its preliminary framework has already raised concern in Israel.

Iran's foreign ministry said on Monday that Tehran still holds "deep mistrust" of the United States despite an agreed framework aimed at ending the war.

"Unfortunately, it must be acknowledged that Iran's deep mistrust of the United States stems from long history of wrongdoing by American leaders," said foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei in a weekly press briefing.
