Politics LIVE: Keir Starmer breaks silence on Iran ceasefire as PM travels to Gulf | Politics | News | EUROtoday

Confirming the ceasefire the President wrote on his social media platform, Truth Social:

“Based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan, and wherein they requested that I hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran, and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks.

“This shall be a 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.

“We acquired a ten level proposal from Iran, and consider it’s a workable foundation on which to barter. Almost the entire varied factors of previous rivalry have been agreed to between the United States and Iran, however a two week interval will enable the Agreement to be finalized and consummated.

“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.”
