Intensive diplomatic efforts are underway to try to establish a 45-day ceasefire between the United States and Iran, as the deadline set by President Donald Trump approaches. According to information reported by Axios, mediators from Pakistan, Egypt, and Turkey are holding discussions to try to reach a temporary agreement that could pave the way for a more sustainable resolution of the conflict.
These negotiations are presented as a final attempt before the American ultimatum expires, extended until 3 a.m. (Israeli time) from Tuesday night to Wednesday. However, according to several American, Israeli, and regional sources, the chances of success remain uncertain, in a context of extreme tensions between the two countries.
Donald Trump has recently adopted a tougher stance towards Tehran, stating that an agreement remains possible in the very near term while issuing multiple threats. On his Truth platform, he urged Iran to reopen the strategic Strait of Hormuz, under the threat of “living through hell”. In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, he also warned that Iran could risk losing all of its energy infrastructure if it refused to comply.
When asked about the duration of the conflict, the American president expressed confidence, stating that the end of hostilities could be announced soon. However, he cautioned that without Iranian concessions by Tuesday night, the consequences would be severe, mentioning the potential destruction of the country’s energy facilities and key infrastructure.
