He also criticised Tehran\u2019s response in sharp terms, saying he could not even finish reading it.<\/p>\n<p>Read Full Article<\/p>\n<p>Using a dramatic comparison, Trump remarked that the agreement was on &#8216;massive life support,&#8217; likening it to a patient with only a minimal chance of survival.<\/p>\n<p>The ceasefire first came into effect on April 8 after weeks of escalating military tensions between Washington and Tehran. The truce followed Trump\u2019s warning that Iran\u2019s \u201cwhole civilization\u201d could be destroyed if an agreement was not reached. Although the arrangement was initially meant to last two weeks, Trump later decided to extend it on April 21.<\/p>\n<p>Since its implementation, the ceasefire has struggled to remain stable, with both countries accusing each other of violating agreed terms.<\/p>\n<p>One of the major conditions attached to the truce was the reopening of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etnownews.com\/topic\/strait-of-hormuz\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Strait of Hormuz<\/a>, a critical global oil shipping route that had seen major disruptions since the conflict began. Trump had earlier said that Iran was expected to immediately restore smooth movement through the strategic waterway as part of the understanding.<\/p>\n<p>However, after shipping activity reportedly failed to return to normal levels, the US administration ordered a naval blockade in the Gulf of Oman to restrict vessels moving in and out of Iranian ports.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the ceasefire, military tensions in the region have continued. Last week, Iran reportedly launched attacks targeting the United Arab Emirates, while the US and Iran exchanged fire in the Strait of Hormuz. The Pentagon also confirmed strikes on two Iran-flagged oil tankers.<\/p>\n<p>Even amid these developments, Trump administration officials had maintained that the ceasefire was technically still in place while waiting for Tehran\u2019s response to Washington\u2019s proposal concerning both the conflict and Iran\u2019s nuclear programme.<\/p>\n<p>On Sunday, Trump revealed on Truth Social that he had finally received Iran\u2019s reply. Reacting strongly, he wrote, \u201cI don\u2019t like it \u2014 TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Speaking to reporters from the Oval Office, Trump said the truce, which has already faced repeated tensions and&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":108807,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[38,37450,17973,34,16070,23435,37449,101,69,28132,30728,37448,146,182],"class_list":{"0":"post-108806","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tehran","8":"tag-donald-trump","9":"tag-et-now","10":"tag-gulf-conflict","11":"tag-iran","12":"tag-iran-ceasefire","13":"tag-iran-nuclear-talks","14":"tag-news-news","15":"tag-strait-of-hormuz","16":"tag-tehran","17":"tag-tehran-response","18":"tag-trump-iran-proposal","19":"tag-trump-latest-statement","20":"tag-us-iran-tensions","21":"tag-us-iran-war-news"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@iran\/116557193491321005","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/108806","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=108806"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/108806\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/108807"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=108806"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=108806"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=108806"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
