Trump Says Iran Final Deal Has Made Progress

U.S. President Donald Trump announced significant progress in reaching a final agreement with Iran.

He wrote on the social platform Truth Social: "Based on requests from Pakistan and other countries... and substantial progress made toward a comprehensive final agreement with Iran, we have jointly agreed that the 'Freedom Plan' will be suspended as long as the blockade remains in effect."

On February 28, the United States and Israel launched multiple strikes against targets inside Iran, including an attack on Tehran, causing damage and civilian casualties. In response, Iran carried out retaliatory missile strikes targeting Israeli territory and U.S. military installations in the Middle East.

On April 8, Washington and Tehran announced a two-week ceasefire, but subsequent negotiations held in Islamabad ended without results. There has been no news of renewed hostilities so far, although the U.S. has begun blocking Iranian ports. Mediators are now trying to facilitate a new round of talks.
