Trump says ceasefire with Iran will extend until Tehran submits proposals
Donald Trump has announced that the ceasefire with Iran will remain in place until Tehran submits its proposals, just hours before the truce was due to expire.
In a statement shared on Truth Social, Trump said the decision came amid internal divisions within the Iranian government and followed requests from Asim Munir and Shehbaz Sharif. He noted that the United States agreed to pause any military action to give Iran’s leadership time to present a unified proposal.
Trump added that while the ceasefire is being extended, US forces will continue maintaining a blockade and remain fully prepared. He emphasized that the truce will stay in effect until Iran submits its proposal and negotiations are brought to a conclusion, regardless of the outcome.
