The agreement, if completed, wouldn’t achieve Trump’s main goal of preventing Iran from acquiring a nuke, but for now it would prevent the restart of war and begin to alleviate a global economic crisis spurred by Iran’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz

IRGC-owned Fars News: • """ • Trump's Claim Regarding the Return of the Strait of Hormuz to its Previous State Is Baseless • • According to Fars News Agency, despite Donald Trump's recent claim on "Truth Social" that the Strait of Hormuz has returned to its previous condition and that an agreement is being prepared for signing, investigations by Fars reporters indicate that this assertion is unsubstantiated. • • Based on the latest exchanged communications, should a potential agreement be reached, the Strait of Hormuz will remain under Iranian management. • • Although Iran has agreed to allow the number of passing vessels to return to pre-war levels, this by no means signifies "free passage" to the pre-war status. • • Consequently, the management of the strait, including route determination, timing, passage procedures, and permit issuance, will remain exclusively under the discretion and management of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Therefore, Trump's claim in this regard is flawed and does not align with reality. • • It is worth noting that Trump had previously declared negotiations regarding Iran's nuclear program as one of the primary and inseparable conditions for any agreement. However, no commitment has been made by Iran, and the nuclear file has not been discussed at this stage. • • American officials have reportedly acknowledged in numerous messages to Iran that Trump's tweets are primarily promotional and intended for media consumption within the United States, advising against paying attention to these statements. • • """

What is this event about?
On April 12, 2026, President Donald Trump announced that the United States will blockade the Strait of Hormuz. You can read more about that here: https://www.nbcnews.com/world/iran/live-blog/live-updates-us-iran-fail-reach-deal-peace-talks-day-negotiations-rcna315918.
This market will resolve to "Yes" if President Trump, the US government, or the US military publicly and officially announces the end of the United States blockade of the Strait of Hormuz by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No."
Qualifying statements must clearly and explicitly indicate that the United States has lifted, ended, or will lift or end its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz on a specified date or use equivalently definitive language unambiguously signaling that such blockade has ceased or is set to cease on a specified date (e.g., statements unambiguously indicating that US naval activity in the relevant area has ceased will qualify).
Statements that merely describe actions inconsistent with the blockade (e.g., "Iran resumed shipping through the Strait of Hormuz") without explicitly indicating the blockade as lifted will not alone suffice.
Informal announcements, statements from unnamed sources, or leaks do not qualify.
Written public statements from Donald Trump (e.g., posts from his personal Truth Social account) will qualify. Videos posted on his social media accounts will also qualify for a "Yes" resolution.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official statements from the US government and/or its official representatives; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
Note: this market will resolve solely based on whether a qualifying announcement is made within the specified timeframe. Whether the blockade is effectively enforced or whether maritime traffic resumes absent a qualifying announcement will not be considered.
