In a significant diplomatic development, a potential two-week ceasefire has been brokered among the US, Iran, and Israel, following US President Donald Trump's recent decision to de-escalate military threats against Iran. The ceasefire, which is reportedly facilitated by Pakistan, aims to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial waterway for global oil shipments. Trump announced he would suspend attacks on Iran, provided Tehran agrees to a complete and safe opening of the Strait. Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed that the passage through the Strait would be managed by Iranian military forces during this period. However, tensions persist, with missile alerts reported across the United Arab Emirates, Israel, and other Gulf nations. Trump noted that Iran has proposed a 10-point peace plan, signaling a potential shift in negotiations that have been strained since the war began on February 28. Despite the ceasefire, concerns remain regarding Iran's nuclear stockpile and the ongoing military activities in the region, as well as international criticism of Trump's previous threats of civilian-targeted strikes, which some officials have labeled as potential war crimes. This ceasefire marks another instance of Trump's pattern of extending deadlines linked to military threats, raising questions about the long-term stability of the region.
