Trump Says US Agreed to Iran Ceasefire After Requests From Pakistan

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump has stated that the United States decided to move towards a ceasefire with Iran following requests from several countries, particularly Pakistan.

Speaking to reporters, Trump said international efforts and diplomatic appeals from friendly nations played an important role in reducing tensions and encouraging both sides to avoid further escalation.

He specifically mentioned Pakistan among the countries that urged Washington to support a ceasefire and pursue diplomatic solutions instead of continuing conflict in the region.

The statement comes amid growing international concern over instability in the Middle East and fears that continued confrontation could threaten regional peace and global security.

Political analysts believe Pakistan’s diplomatic engagement reflects its longstanding position in favor of peace, dialogue, and regional stability. Officials from several countries have recently called for restraint and negotiations to prevent a wider conflict.

Trump did not provide further details about the negotiations but indicated that diplomatic communication between multiple countries helped create conditions for the ceasefire decision.
