Trump extends ceasefire in Iran, citing ‘seriously fractured’ Iranian government

Trump extended the ceasefire while keeping the blockade on Iranian ports, and Pakistan said mediators are still waiting for Tehran to decide on talks.

  • U.S. President Donald Trump extended an indefinite ceasefire with Iran at Pakistan's request, citing Iran's seriously fractured government and awaiting a unified proposal from its leaders.
  • Top negotiators Vice President JD Vance and Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf are expected to lead their teams in a second round of peace talks in Islamabad.
  • The U.S. naval blockade of Iranian ports and control over the Strait of Hormuz remain key unresolved issues, with recent incidents increasing regional volatility and causing oil prices to rise sharply.
  • The conflict has disrupted global energy supplies and caused significant casualties since it began with U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran earlier this year.
