President Donald Trump celebrated turning 80 by announcing a preliminary agreement to end the war and a UFC cage-fighting event on the White House lawn. Trump suggested before the fights that a deal with Tehran means the U.S. will lift its blockade and that the Strait of Hormuz will reopen. However, crucial details remain unresolved. The UFC event, which is also part of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, featured seven fights and thousands of spectators. Trump is a master of political diversion, though, and the event can be seen as a deliberate distraction from rising gas prices and the president's low approval ratings. Trump’s approach contrasted sharply with President's Joe Biden's low-key 80th birthday at the White House.

The Carolina Hurricanes won their first Stanley Cup championship in 20 years on Sunday night, using a suffocating defense in Game 6 to shut down the Vegas Golden Knights 3-0 and winning three straight games of a thrilling final filled with momentum swings and spectacular offense. Brandon Bussi, who entrance late into Game 3 helped turn around the series, recorded his first career playoff shutout in stopping 22 shots. Jackson Blake backed him up with a goal and assist, and Taylor Hall scored just 3:47 into the game to set the tone. Nikolaj Ehlers added an empty-net goal.

Pakistan announced that the U.S. and Iran reached an agreement to end the war and open the Strait of Hormuz. But that doesn’t mean high oil and gasoline prices and energy supply problems will be solved overnight. Energy experts say it will likely be months before energy companies can resume operations to the point where they're able to meet the world’s demand. It will take a long time for ships stranded in the Persian Gulf to reach their destinations. And companies need to be confident that peace will last before they send in ships or restart oil production.

The United States and Iran have reached an initial agreement to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. It could allow desperately needed oil and gas to reach the global market, giving relief to the global economy more than three months since fighting began. Details of the deal were not immediately available. Iran signaled that implementation would not start until the signing. Pakistan says that will be Friday in Switzerland. U.S. President Donald Trump confirms the deal and has authorized an end to the U.S. naval blockade of Iranian ports. Iran’s deputy foreign minister also confirms the agreement. Broader negotiations on issues like Iran’s nuclear program are expected to continue.
