President Donald Trump<\/a> on Tuesday announced that, based on conversations with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, he will delay the “bombing and attack of Iran” for two weeks.<\/p>\n

Trump said the decision came after the leaders requested the U.S.<\/a> “hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran,” which the president previously threatened would start at 8 p.m. eastern time if a deal was not reached.<\/p>\n

The president said the postponement is subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran<\/a> agreeing to “the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz.”<\/p>\n

“This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. “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<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

He added the administration received a 10-point proposal from Iran, and officials “believe it is a workable basis on which to negotiate.”<\/p>\n

“Almost all of the various points of past contention have been agreed to between the United States and Iran, but a two week period will allow the Agreement to be finalized and consummated,” Trump wrote. “On behalf of the United States of America, as President, and also representing the Countries of the Middle East, it is an Honor to have this Longterm problem close to resolution.”<\/p>\n

The Supreme National Security Council of the Islamic Republic of Iran responded in a statement, thanking Sharif and Munir for their “tireless efforts” to end the war in the region, and agreeing to cease defensive operations if attacks against Iran are halted.<\/p>\n

For a period of two weeks, Iran said safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz “will be possible via coordination with Iran’s Armed Forces” and with “due consideration of technical limitations.”<\/p>\n

Israel has also agreed to suspend its bombing campaign in Iran as part of the last-minute deal.<\/p>\n

The White House<\/a> cautioned nothing is confirmed while addressing reports that further talks would happen in Pakistan on Friday.<\/p>\n

“There are discussions about in person talks, but nothing is final until announced by the President or the White House,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News.<\/p>\n
