  "summary": "US President Donald Trump said that negotiations with Iran will begin on Monday. He had previously decided to hold off on new strikes against the Islamic republic to pursue a deal. According to Trump, the talks aim to wind down the war and revive stalled cargo traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.\n\nTrump's decision to call off the strikes followed a phone call with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who stressed the need to prioritize dialogue to reduce regional tensions. The US president claimed that Israel was also involved in the commitment to a deal, which would include the complete opening of the Strait of Hormuz and an end to Iran's nuclear threat. However, Tehran denied that an understanding had been reached.\n\nThis is not the first time Trump has threatened massive strikes against Iran only to later call them off. According to Fortune and Associated Press, this pattern has been a defining feature of the five-month conflict that has sent prices of oil and basic goods soaring. MercoPress reported that Iranian authorities rejected Trump's account, with the Fars news agency describing the announcement as another withdrawal of threats.",
