• Both sides claim

US President Donald Trump on Wednesday claimed that Iran has undergone what he described as a “very productive regime change”, as he outlined terms of a proposed ceasefire and broader engagement between Washington and Tehran.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the United States would work closely with Iran going forward, stressing that there would be no uranium enrichment and that nuclear remnants would be removed under US supervision. He added that the sites remain under strict satellite monitoring.

Ceasefire Linked to Strait of Hormuz

Trump confirmed that he has agreed to a proposed two-week ceasefire with Iran, conditional on the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz for global shipping.

Describing it as a “two-sided ceasefire”, he said the US had already achieved its military objectives and suggested the conflict could be nearing resolution.

Earlier, Trump had warned Tehran of potential strikes on key infrastructure, including power plants and bridges, if it failed to comply with US demands. He had set a deadline for a response, which has now passed with the ceasefire announcement.

Iran Signals Conditional Agreement

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Tehran would agree to halt hostilities provided attacks against Iran cease.

He confirmed that safe maritime passage through the Strait of Hormuz would be ensured for two weeks, coordinated with Iran’s Armed Forces and subject to technical considerations.

Claims of ‘Victory’ and Path to Talks

Iran’s Supreme National Security Council described the development as a “historic victory”, asserting that the United States had accepted Tehran’s 10-point proposal.

Trump, meanwhile, said many elements of a broader 15-point framework have already been agreed upon, adding that discussions on tariffs and sanctions relief are expected as part of the next phase.
