US – Iran tensions take dramatic turn…

Donald Trump has made a sudden announcement of a two-week ceasefire in the ongoing tensions between the United States and Iran, just minutes before a major military escalation was expected. The decision comes at a time when global tensions were at their peak, following strong warnings issued earlier by Trump. As part of the ceasefire, the United States will halt all military operations, including airstrikes, for 14 days, with expectations that both sides will exercise restraint.

A key condition of this ceasefire involves ensuring safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial route for global oil transportation. Iran has reportedly responded positively, indicating willingness to cooperate during this period. The sudden move has brought temporary relief to global markets and opened a brief window for diplomatic discussions. However, this remains a temporary pause, and the developments after the two-week period will be critical in determining whether the situation moves towards resolution or escalates further.
