Trump to order halt to Iran strikes after parameters reached for deal to end war — The emerging deal “would include the Immediate, Complete, and Total OPENING OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT, and an end to Iran’s nuclear threat,” Trump wrote in a Saturday evening social media post. (thepress.co.nz)
The White House confirmed that President Donald Trump has decided to pause any potential military strikes against Iran, following ongoing negotiations aimed at resolving tensions. The deal, which is in its final stages, includes provisions for the full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway for global oil trade. (aljazeera.com)
Iran has also stated that talks with Oman on the Strait of Hormuz are nearing completion, aligning with Trump’s announcement. The U.S. president had previously threatened military action against Iran but now appears to be shifting toward diplomatic solutions. (timesofisrael.com)
Despite the apparent progress, some reports suggest that the U.S. was initially misled about Iran’s willingness to cooperate. Qataris reportedly informed Washington that Tehran had agreed to open the strait, but this was not confirmed by Iranian officials. (news.google.com)
