لماذا يهم
Tensions between US and Iran have escalated with US threats to bomb Iran. Pakistan has emerged as a potential mediator, with its military and political leaders requesting time to develop a unified proposal.
Last-minute extension
"Based on the fact that the government of Iran is seriously fractured, not unexpectedly so, and, upon the request of Field Marshal Asim Munir and Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif of Pakistan, we have been asked to hold our attack on the country of Iran until such time as their leaders and representatives can come up with a unified proposal," Trump said in a social media post.
"I have therefore directed our military to continue the blockade and, in all other respects, remain ready and able, and will therefore extend the ceasefire until such time as their proposal is submitted and discussions are concluded, one way or the other."
It was a sharp reversal from his earlier threat in an interview with CNBC on Tuesday that he was very unlikely to extend the ceasefire and would continue to bomb Iran.
