Share on:

Tensions and diplomatic efforts have led to an agreement for a temporary ceasefire between the US and Iran, with the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. This development followed threats from Donald Trump to strike Iranian infrastructure.

Trump's Threats: At 15:06 Greek time, Donald Trump warned that 'an entire civilization will die tonight,' threatening strikes on energy facilities and bridges in Iran. The statement sparked reactions.

Diplomatic Contacts: Initially, there was conflicting information about the cessation of direct contacts between the US and Iran, but Iranian media denied the reports.

Pakistan's Intervention: The Prime Minister of Pakistan, Shehbaz Sharif, asked Trump to extend the deadline for military action, while calling on Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz.

Ceasefire Agreement: At 01:32 Greek time, Trump announced an agreement to suspend bombings for two weeks, conditioned on the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. Iran accepted the reopening of the strait.

Tehran's Terms: Iran presented a 10-point plan, including a commitment to non-aggression, control of the Strait of Hormuz, acceptance of uranium enrichment, and the lifting of sanctions.

Ceasefire in Lebanon Too? Pakistan claimed that the ceasefire extends to Lebanon, but Israel denied it.

Market Impact: The ceasefire led to a drop in oil prices and a rise in Asian stock markets.
