BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 8. The United States
has suspended possible strikes on Iranian civilian infrastructure
for two weeks, U.S. President Donald Trump wrote on his X page,
Trend reports.
"Based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and
Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan, and wherein they requested
that I hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran,
and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the
COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I
agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two
weeks. This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE! The reason for doing
so is that we have already met and exceeded all Military
objectives, and are very far along with a definitive Agreement
concerning Longterm PEACE with Iran, and PEACE in the Middle East.
We received a 10 point proposal from Iran, and believe it is a
workable basis on which to negotiate," he wrote.
He noted that almost all of the various points of past
contention have been agreed to between the United States and Iran,
but a two week period will allow the Agreement to be finalized and
consummated.
"On behalf of the United States of America, as President, and
also representing the Countries of the Middle East, it is an Honor
to have this Longterm problem close to resolution," Trump
added.
