Trump claims progress in indirect Iran negotiations through Pakistan, signaling potential diplomatic breakthrough. The US President stated talks are advancing positively via Pakistani intermediaries, though specific details remain undisclosed. Trump emphasized continued military pressure, noting thirteen thousand targets have been bombed with several thousand remaining. He indicated a deal could materialize fairly quickly. A significant development involves Iran permitting twenty Pakistani-flagged oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz, which Trump characterized as a gesture of respect and a positive negotiating signal. The Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf reportedly authorized the tanker passage. These developments suggest potential easing of tensions in a critical global shipping corridor, with implications for oil markets and regional stability.
