President Trump said Tuesday that he would “suspend” an escalation of attacks on Iran for two weeks as long as Iran agrees to open the Strait of Hormuz.
In a Truth Social post less than two hours before his 8 p.m. EDT deadline for Iran to make a deal to open the strait, the president said conversations with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir led to the “double sided CEASEFIRE.”
“The reason for doing so is that we have already met and exceeded all Military objectives, and are very far along with a definitive Agreement concerning Longterm PEACE with Iran, and PEACE in the Middle East,” he wrote.
Trump said a 10-point proposal was also received from Iran that is a “workable basis on which to negotiate.”
