President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he would extend the ceasefire with Iran until the country submitted a peace proposal and "discussions are concluded, one way or the other."
"We have been asked to hold our Attack on the Country of Iran until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal," Trump said in a post on Truth Social, calling Iran's government "seriously fractured" and saying the requests came from top Pakistani officials.
The president made the announcement as the chances for talks between the two sides were growing increasingly dim. Trump also confirmed he would continue the naval blockade of Iranian ports, a move that Iran's leaders have called "an act of war."
Vice President JD Vance was expected to leave for Islamabad, Pakistan, on Tuesday morning to lead a U.S. delegation in talks with Iran. But the trip was called off as U.S. officials await a plan from the Iranians. Tehran, meanwhile, expressed frustration with American leaders and said it hadn't decided whether it would send diplomats to Pakistan at all.
