President of the United States, Donald Trump, has claimed that scheduled military strikes and bombings against Iran were cancelled following what he described as “high-level” diplomatic discussions involving Iranian leadership and multiple international stakeholders.
In a statement attributed to him on Thursday, Trump said negotiations with the Islamic Republic of Iran had been elevated to the highest levels of Iranian leadership and were subsequently approved, leading to the suspension of planned military action “this evening.”
According to the statement, discussions and “final points” of a proposed transaction were allegedly agreed upon “in both concept and great detail” by several countries, including the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Turkey, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, and Egypt, among others.

The statement further claimed that a naval blockade would remain in place “in full force and effect” until the proposed transaction is finalized, with the time and location of a formal signing ceremony expected to be announced later.
No independent confirmation of the claims has been issued by the governments mentioned at the time of reporting, and details of the alleged agreement remain unclear.
