This agreement is a minor deescalation of tensions. I wouldn't go as far as to say the US has another friend in the Middle East.

Yeah. It's good news, definitely, but there's still a long way to go. It'll be interesting to see if they can keep up the diplomatic momentum once Kerry is gone, because he's been rather instrumental for a lot of this (as per a fascinating Aljazeera) report I watched today)
