US-Iran Ceasefire: Deal or No Deal?
The United States and Iran have agreed to a two-week ceasefire. This move prevented a threatened US attack. However, the exact details of the agreement remain unclear. Major news networks reported a statement from Iran's Supreme National Security Council. But former US President Donald Trump called that report fake. Instead, Trump shared a cryptic message from Iran's Foreign Minister, Seyed Abbas Araghchi. Official confirmation from both governments is still pending. The temporary halt in hostilities offers a short window for diplomacy. The long-term meaning of the deal is not yet known.
