In a dramatic claim, former US President Donald Trump declared via his Truth Social platform that Iran's president has expressed a desire for a ceasefire. Despite Trump's assertion, Iran's presidential leadership has not changed.
Trump emphasized that a ceasefire could only be achievable if the Strait of Hormuz stays unrestricted. He suggested that until then, military pressure would persist, metaphorically stating Iran would be driven back to the 'Stone Ages.'
Meanwhile, Iran's stance remains defiant. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi reiterated that Iran would not succumb to threats and timelines. In a statement aired by Al Jazeera, he stressed Iran's resolve to guard its national interests vigorously.
