US EditionTrump says US won 'total and complete victory' after ceasefire deal with Iran, AFP reports
Trump said the deal came after pressure and Chinese mediation, and he claimed Tehran’s uranium would be handled under the ceasefire.
- On Tuesday, President Donald Trump claimed the United States secured a "total and complete victory" after reaching a two-week ceasefire deal with Iran that aims to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and halt hostilities.
- Trump previously warned Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by 8 p.m. Tuesday or face destruction, stating a refusal would mean a "whole civilization will die." The breakthrough occurred around 90 minutes before that deadline expired.
- Predicting a "Golden Age of the Middle East," Trump credited China with helping bring Iran to the negotiating table and said the United States would assist with Strait of Hormuz traffic while "hangin' around" to ensure peace.
- The Islamic Resistance in Iraq agreed to halt regional operations for two weeks, while Asian governments welcomed the truce and United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called on all parties to abide by ceasefire terms for lasting peace.
- Despite the ceasefire, at least 1,530 people have died in the war between Israel and Hezbollah, and Iran-backed Iraqi groups reportedly fired missiles at Gulf Arab states and Israel even after the announcement.
