The US and Iran agreed to a two-week ceasefire on Tuesday, barely an hour before President Donald Trump’s deadline to launch major strikes on Iran was set to expire. Tehran has agreed to temporarily reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

Trump described the proposal, mediated by Pakistan, as a “workable basis on which to negotiate.” Israel has also agreed to the ceasefire, according to the White House.

Iran’s 10-Point Ceasefire Conditions

According to Iranian state media and the Supreme National Security Council, the plan includes the following key demands:

  1. Non-aggression pact between Iran and the United States
  2. Continued Iranian control over the Strait of Hormuz
  3. Acceptance of Iran’s nuclear enrichment programme
  4. Lifting of all primary sanctions on Iran
  5. Lifting of all secondary sanctions on Iran
  6. Termination of all UN Security Council resolutions against Iran
  7. Termination of all IAEA Board of Governors resolutions
  8. Payment of compensation to Iran
  9. Withdrawal of US combat forces from the Middle East
  10. Cessation of war on all fronts, including against the Islamic Resistance in Lebanon

Iran has stated that it will allow safe passage of vessels through the Strait of Hormuz during the ceasefire under the coordination of its armed forces. Tehran has also claimed victory in the conflict, saying it forced the US to accept its conditions.

In a post on Truth Social, President Trump said he received the 10-point proposal from Iran and believes it is “workable.” He agreed to suspend strikes for two weeks to allow time for a long-term peace agreement. Trump mentioned that almost all major points of contention have already been agreed upon between the two sides.

He also credited Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir for their mediation efforts.

Next Steps

  • Pakistan has invited US and Iranian delegations to Islamabad for talks on Friday.
  • Tehran has confirmed it will participate.
  • The White House said it is considering in-person talks, but nothing has been finalised yet.

The ceasefire comes after more than five weeks of conflict that began with US-Israeli strikes on 28 February. Analysts note that while Iran’s demands are maximalist, they are likely to form the starting point for negotiations.
