Trump Announces Full Ceasefire Between Israel and Iran – Tehran Accepts

Donald Trump announced on Tuesday, June 24, 2025, via social media that a full and total ceasefire has been agreed upon between Israel and Iran. The ceasefire is set to begin at approximately 7:00 AM (Greek time) and will officially end the 12-day conflict. Trump reiterated this statement in an interview with NBC later. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi confirmed the ceasefire shortly after 4:00 PM, thanking Iran’s armed forces for their efforts. He emphasized that military operations against Israel continued until the very last moment. Trump expressed optimism about the lasting peace in the Middle East, stating he believes the ceasefire will endure indefinitely. Initially greeted with skepticism by Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, who denied any agreement, the deal was eventually brokered with Qatar’s intervention. If successful, this could dramatically reshape the geopolitical landscape of the Middle East.
