The United States and Iran have reached an agreement to end the war and open the Strait of Hormuz, offering relief to the global economy more than three months since fighting began. Full details of the deal were not immediately available. The signing will be Friday in Switzerland.

World leaders began gathering in a French spa town Monday for a summit of the Group of Seven club of powerful democracies with a new impetus following President Donald Trump's announcement of an agreement that he says will bring an end to the US war against Iran. Trump arrives in Evian-les-Bains on Monday afternoon for talks with G7 leaders, including some who have been sharply critical of his managing of the roughly 15-week conflict that has led to a surge in global energy prices. Trump has had sharp disagreement with host French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni over failing to consult them before the decision to go to war. Trump has threatened reprisals, including drawing down US troops in all four countries, all members of the NATO military alliance, for their lack of support. The G7 includes France, the United States, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan and the United Kingdom. Gue
