U.S. suspends attacks on Iran following diplomatic intervention by Pakistan

U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a two-week suspension of military strikes against Iran. This decision follows intensive diplomatic efforts led by Pakistan, specifically Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Army Chief Asim Munir, who requested a delay to allow for negotiations. The pause is conditional upon Iran opening the Strait of Hormuz to ensure the safe passage of global oil supplies. Trump confirmed that Iran has submitted a 10-point proposal that could serve as a framework for a long-term peace agreement. The White House indicated that peace talks are expected to begin on Friday, April 10, in Islamabad. Reports suggest that Israel has also agreed to a temporary ceasefire as part of these broader regional de-escalation efforts. While the U.S. previously threatened severe consequences, the administration now states that current military objectives have been met.
