This market will resolve to “Yes” if Donald Trump hugs any current government official of the Islamic Republic of Iran by June 20, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No." Video or photographic evidence of the hug must be released within this market’s time frame to qualify. A qualifying partner in a hug with Donald Trump must be a current government official of the Islamic Republic of Iran. A qualifying hug is defined as an in-person greeting or gesture involving the two individuals wrapping at least one arm around the other individual's shoulders or back while facing each other in a manner consistent with a hug. Gestures where only one individual places an arm around the other, or where both individuals place arms around each other while standing side by side and not facing each other, will not qualify as a hug. Brief incidental contact, such as a pat on the back or shoulder without arm-wrapping from both parties, will similarly not qualify. The resolution source will be based on photographic/video footage.Recent diplomatic progress, including a U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding finalized in mid-June 2026 and slated for formalization on June 19 in Switzerland, has centered on ceasefire extensions, Strait of Hormuz reopening, and nuclear talks between Presidents Trump and Pezeshkian. However, these developments remain strictly procedural through electronic signatures, mediators, and official channels, with no scheduled in-person meetings or personal interactions in the final 48-hour window before the June 20 cutoff. Established diplomatic protocols, ongoing bilateral tensions, and Trump’s public schedule make any physical gesture like a hug between leaders improbable. Trader consensus at 98.5% No reflects this structural separation of formal negotiations from informal contact. A last-minute unannounced summit or protocol breach could theoretically shift the outcome, though no credible signals point to such an event.
