Trump says he is canceling fresh strikes on Iran, hints at possible peace deal
Trump said a deal could be signed this weekend, while Iran said negotiations were not yet final and oil markets swung on the news.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump announced the United States has "ended the war" with Iran, citing a "very strong memorandum of understanding" to halt fighting and resolve the conflict.
- Qatari Emir Tamim, United Arab Emirates President Mohamed, and Asim Munir urged Trump to call off strikes after he vowed to seize Kharg Island, which handles roughly 90% of Iran's crude exports.
- The Prime Minister Netanyahu expressed appreciation for the ceasefire, which includes "removal of enriched nuclear material, the dismantling of enrichment infrastructure, limits on missile production, and an end to Iran's support for its terrorist proxies in the region." Israel is not part of the United States memorandum.
