President Donald Trump said Tuesday night that he has agreed to Pakistan's proposed two-week ceasefire with Iran if they agree to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, and Iran has now agreed to do so.

"Based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan, and wherein they requested that I hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran, and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks. This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE," Trump posted on Truth Social.
