Trump signals end of Iran war

In a series of public statements and interviews, President Trump claimed the war with Iran is 'very close to over' following high-level mediation efforts by Pakistan.

The White House is currently weighing a potential extension of the fragile two-week ceasefire to allow for further negotiations in Islamabad.

However, the administration simultaneously increased economic pressure by implementing a full maritime blockade of Iranian ports.

Mediators are working to bridge a significant gap regarding Iran's nuclear program and wartime reparations before the current truce expires.
