The two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran, brokered by Pakistan, is facing significant challenges due to conflicting interpretations from both sides. President Donald Trump announced that Iran would surrender its enriched uranium and cease further enrichment. However, Iran's supreme national security council published a counter-proposal asserting its right to continue enriching uranium. This disagreement highlights the fragility of the ceasefire, which is further complicated by Israel's assertion that the ceasefire does not apply to Lebanon, where military actions have intensified. In response to these developments, Iran has halted the passage of oil tankers, escalating tensions in the region. The contradictory claims from both the US and Iran raise concerns about the potential for a lasting agreement.
