Newsweek, " Why the Iran Deal Is Criticized and Called 'Surrender' " [View all]
Let the oil flow, President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social Sunday as he announced a deal with Iran to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Speaking in France on Monday, he said the deals all signed, adding that the vital waterway is expected to fully reopen by Friday.

Criticism has also come from Washington. Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer called on the administration to release details of the agreement and brief Congress, questioning what the U.S. had gained from the conflict.
Democratic Senator Chris Murphy went further, describing the MOU as essentially surrender to Iran.
Make no mistake: these are Irans terms, Murphy wrote on X, arguing that reopening the Strait of Hormuz was not a meaningful concession because it had been open before the war. He also warned that providing Iran access to frozen funds before reaching a nuclear agreement could weaken U.S. leverage in future negotiations.
