Pakistan, a key mediator, says the agreement will end "military operations on all fronts" and be signed on Friday in Switzerland.

  • Pakistan’s Prime Minister says a peace deal has been reached between the US and Iran

  • “Both sides have declared the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon”, Shehbaz Sharif says

  • Donald Trump says: “The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all!”

  • Iran is yet to comment; details of what the deal does and doesn’t cover are still emerging

  • The war began on 28 February, with US and Israeli strikes across Iran. It prompted Iran to attack Israel and US-allied states in the Gulf and effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz, a key oil and gas shipping route

    I’m optimistic this will stick. Quiet control/tolls over SoH. Sanctions/funds relief. US leaves. 60 days talks likely to extend past mid terms, with Trump declaring victory the whole time for stopping nuclear program, before finalization. GCC likely to line up investments in Iran.

    Israel can likely be contained. American assets will be forced to say how great Trump’s victory is. Israel has limited supply of US missiles, and needs cooperation from air refueling services to bring planes to Iran.
