Trump extends Iran war ceasefire as negotiations stall. President Donald Trump announced an indefinite extension of the ceasefire in the Iran conflict, buying time for mediators to arrange fresh talks between US and Iranian negotiators. The move came hours before the previous ceasefire was set to expire. Trump cited Pakistan's request and blamed Iran's leadership for failing to present a unified proposal. However, significant obstacles persist. The US naval blockade of Iran remains in place, and Iran's Foreign Ministry expressed reluctance to attend talks, citing contradictory American messaging. Vice President JD Vance cancelled his planned trip to Pakistan to lead negotiations. Critical disputes over the Strait of Hormuz, Iran's nuclear program, and the blockade continue unresolved.
