The Trump administration shared the details of the preliminary agreement to end the war with Iran on Wednesday, as President Trump took questions from reporters in Evian, France, at a press conference that capped off his visit to the G7 summit.

Senior administration officials, who briefed reporters on condition of anonymity, read the agreement in its entirety. Iran has not released any details yet. Trump had announced the two sides struck an agreement on Sunday but the specifics of the plan had not been made public until Wednesday -- causing a lot of speculation and confusion about what is and isn't outlined in the framework.

As expected, the entire document is fairly short and light on details, with much left to be sorted out in future negotiations.

According to the document read by the senior administration official, the U.S. and Iran declare "the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts" โ€” including in Lebanon. The two sides also promise "not to initiate" any further war or operation against each other.

It sets out a 60-day period โ€” extendable if both sides agree โ€” to negotiate a final deal.

Upon signing, which Trump says will take place in the coming days, the agreement says the U.S. will begin the removal of its naval blockade and will "fully end" the blockade within 30 days if a final deal is reached.

Iran, according to the agreement, will use its "best efforts" to ensure the safe passage of commercial vessels traveling between the Persian Gulf and the Sea of Oman. Those vessels would not be charged for 60 days.
