U.S. agrees to pause attacks on Iran subject to ‘rapidly’ making deal, Trump says
The president said the U.S. was “locked and loaded and ready to go” but that he agreed to cancel attacks “subject to being able to rapidly make a DEAL.”
The U.S. has agreed to pause attacks on Iran, President Donald Trump said Saturday, amid what he said were the “perimeters of a deal” that would include the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
“We have just been asked by Iran, and other Middle Eastern Countries, to hold off any attack in that the perimeters of a deal has been agreed to,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social. “This would include the Immediate, Complete, and Total OPENING OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT, and an end to Iran’s nuclear threat.”
