How Trump Pivoted From Bombing Iran to Announcing a Ceasefire in Just 48 Hours

  • On June 25, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump announced a complete ceasefire between Israel and Iran after a 12-day conflict involving strikes in Tehran and Iranian missile attacks on Israel and a US base in Qatar.
  • The ceasefire followed Trump's decision on June 21 to authorize US strikes on Iran's three main nuclear sites after months of diplomatic efforts and growing military tensions.
  • Trump called Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to halt bombing, sent special envoy Steve Witkoff to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, and Washington asked Qatar to mediate ceasefire talks.
  • Trump posted on social media messages such as 'IF YOU DO IT IS A MAJOR VIOLATION,' ordered Israeli pilots home, declared the ceasefire 'in effect,' and claimed to have destroyed Iran's nuclear capabilities, though uranium enrichment continues.
  • Despite the ceasefire, commitments from Iran and Israel remain unclear, and Iran's nuclear program persists, indicating the agreement likely provides only a temporary pause rather than a lasting resolution.
