- Trump arrived Monday at the G7 summit in the French Alps, hours after announcing a US deal to end the Iran war
- The Iran deal includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz after months of conflict, according to The Hill's headlines
- Trump, Vance, and an Iranian official signed a US-Iran peace memorandum of understanding
- The US-Iran deal carries "major caveats," per The Hill's 12:30 Report
- The G7 puts Trump in the same room as British PM Keir Starmer and other European leaders who criticized the US-Israeli campaign in Iran
Why it matters: Trump walks into a room of allies who publicly opposed the US-Israeli military campaign in Iran, yet arrives claiming a diplomatic win. The deal — reopening the Strait of Hormuz and producing a signed peace memo — still carries 'major caveats,' and leaders like Starmer have a ready-made platform to challenge the terms face-to-face.
