Trump: Agrees to suspend bombing and attacks on Iran within two weeks

Golden Finance reports that on April 8, U.S. President Donald Trump said: “Based on discussions with Pakistan’s Prime Minister Sheerif and Pakistan’s Army Chief of Staff Asim Munir, they asked me tonight not to deploy destructive forces against Iran, and, on the condition that Iran agrees to fully, immediately, and safely open the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attacks on Iran for two weeks. This will be a two-way ceasefire! The reason for doing so is that we have already reached—and even surpassed—all military objectives, and we have made major progress toward a long-term peace agreement with Iran and a Middle East peace agreement. We received the ten-point proposals put forward by Iran, and we believe this is a viable basis for negotiations. Nearly all of the past disputed points between the United States and Iran have been agreed upon, and the two weeks will allow the agreement to be finalized and take effect. As President of the United States, and on behalf of the countries of the Middle East, I am truly honored to have made progress in resolving this long-standing issue.”
