US EditionTrump: Iran peace talks possible as soon as Friday
Trump said Iran must present a unified proposal as Pakistani mediators prepare a second round of talks and the US blockade of Iranian trade by sea continues.
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump stated that fresh peace talks between Washington and Tehran may take place as soon as Friday in Islamabad, The New York Post reported, though Iran has not confirmed participation.
- Trump extended the ceasefire at Pakistan's request until Tehran submits a "unified proposal," a condition conveyed by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir to allow diplomatic progress.
- Despite diplomatic efforts, the U.S. military maintains a naval blockade of Iranian ports in effect since April 13, which Tehran describes as an act of war disrupting global energy supplies.
- Iran's semi-official Tasnim news agency denied any official agreement to extend the ceasefire, stating "Iran has not issued any official statement confirming its agreement" despite media reports of talks.
- Pakistani sources indicate negotiations could occur within the next 36 to 72 hours, a critical window determining whether the ceasefire holds and the blockade is lifted, affecting global shipping routes.
