Donald Trump has described Iran\u2019s ten-point proposal as a \u201dworkable basis on which to negotiate\u201d. But when details of the plan began to emerge, several experts reacted with shock and disbelief.<\/p>\n

\u201dIt looks like Trump has capitulated massively\u201d, said Sky News U.S. correspondent Mark Stone.<\/p>\n

Just an hour before Trump\u2019s deadline
\nTuesday started with Donald Trump warning that a \u201cwhole civilization\u201d of 90 million Iranians could face annihilation.<\/p>\n

But then, the United States and Iran agreed to a temporary two-week ceasefire \u2014 just under an hour before Donald Trump\u2019s deadline to escalate military action was set to expire.<\/p>\n

According to Axios reporter Barak Ravid, a longtime authority on international conflicts, Pakistan played a key role in the negotiations. Behind the scenes, Egypt was instrumental in bringing the U.S. and Iran closer together, and Turkey also helped facilitate talks, he said in a tweet.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the New York Times, citing three Iranian sources, reports that China stepped in at the last minute. According to the paper, Beijing pressed Tehran to \u201cshow flexibility and reduce tensions,\u201d pointing to the global economic fallout from the conflict.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

According to the White House, Israel also signed on to the pause. Announcing the decision to hold off on further strikes, Trump revealed that Iran had presented a 10-point proposal, calling it a \u201cworkable basis on which to negotiate.\u201d<\/p>\n

The ceasefire marks a fragile diplomatic breakthrough after days of missile and drone attacks across the Middle East. Talks are expected to continue in Islamabad, following mediation efforts by Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s in Iran\u2019s proposal?
\nAccording to Iranian state media, Tehran has made clear that it will only agree to end the war once the details are worked out in accordance with a 10\u2011point peace plan allegedly sent to Washington through Pakistani intermediaries. The list contains several conditions the United States has historically opposed:<\/p>\n

While full details haven\u2019t been officially confirmed, Iranian state media claims the plan includes sweeping demands, such as:<\/p>\n

Non-aggression pact between the US and Iran
\nContinuation of Iran\u2019s control over the Strait of Hormuz
\nRecognition of Iran\u2019s nuclear enrichment rights
\nLifting of all primary US sanctions
\nLifting of all secondary sanctions affecting third-party countries
\nTermination of all UN Security Council resolutions against Iran
\nTermination of all International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board resolutions
\nPayment of compensation to Iran for damages
\nWithdrawal of US combat forces from the region
\nCessation of war across all fronts, including conflicts involving Iran-backed groups such as Hezbollah in Lebanon
\nCeasefire linked to Hormuz reopening
\nA ceasefire tied to oil flow
\nAt the heart of the agreement is the Strait of Hormuz \u2014 one of the world\u2019s most important oil routes. Iran has agreed to allow controlled traffic through the strait for two weeks, a crucial move given that roughly 20% of the world\u2019s oil supply passes through it. In return, the U.S. has paused offensive operations, including plans to expand strikes on Iranian infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Following the announcement, the White House described the two-week ceasefire between Iran and the United States as a major win for Washington.<\/p>\n

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said that Operation Epic Fury had achieved its goals in just 38 days \u2014 weeks ahead of schedule.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a victory for the United States that President Trump and our incredible military made happen,\u201d Leavitt said in a statement.<\/p>\n

She added, \u201cFrom the very beginning of Operation Epic Fury, President Trump estimated this would be a 4\u20136 week operation. Thanks to the unbelievable capabilities of our warriors, we have achieved and exceeded our core military objectives in 38 days.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA complete victory\u201d
\nThe announcement of a two-week pause in hostilities has been described by US correspondent Mark Stone as appearing to represent a significant capitulation by Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

According to Stone, Trump has effectively \u201ckicked an almighty can down the road,\u201d handing the upper hand to the Iranian regime. Stone spoke briefly with Trump by phone overnight following the ceasefire announcement.<\/p>\n

Trump reportedly told him, \u201cI haven\u2019t got long, be quick,\u201d before adding that he felt the situation was \u201cgreat\u2026 very good.\u201d<\/p>\n

He went on to describe the military operations as a complete success, calling it \u201ca complete victory, a victory in military terms.\u201d Trump further asserted that, in every other sense as well, it amounted to \u201ca complete victory.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201dThe level of incompetence is stunning\u201d
\nNot everyone sees the temporary ceasefire as a win for the White House. Tuesday\u2019s agreement was shaped by the highly charged and polarized emotions that Trump consistently inspires.<\/p>\n

Some critics even mocked it as another \u201cTACO\u201d moment \u2014 \u201cTrump Always Chickens Out.\u201d<\/p>\n

Democratic lawmakers weighed in on the ceasefire, offering a mix of relief and criticism.<\/p>\n

\u201cStopping war is good,\u201d Senator Ruben Gallego wrote on X. \u201cI am glad our men and women in uniform will be out of danger. We can criticize why we got into this war, the illegality of it and holding the Trump admin accountable. But right now I am relieved.\u201d<\/p>\n

Senator Chris Murphy called Iran\u2019s control of the Strait of Hormuz a \u201chistory-changing win\u201d for Tehran. \u201cThe level of incompetence is both stunning and heartbreaking,\u201d he said on X.<\/p>\n

Senator Ed Markey added, \u201cI\u2019m glad there is a reported ceasefire deal with Iran. But we shouldn\u2019t be in this illegal war in the first place. And Donald Trump can\u2019t simply threaten war crimes with impunity. Congress needs to get back in session now to stop this war and remove Donald Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n

What happens next? Will the parties be able to reach a lasting peace, or is this just a temporary pause in the conflict?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
