U.S. President Trump announced on the 14th that he had reached an armistice agreement with Iran, and Iran also confirmed this. In response, the Iranian military said that Iran had "humiliated" the United States and Israel in the war in the Middle East, and the United Nations said it welcomed the agreement between the United States and Iran.

According to the "AFP" report, Iran's General Staff stated in a statement broadcast on Iranian state television on the 15th that by showing its sacred and iron will to the humiliated enemies of the United States and Zionism, the Iranian military has strongly demonstrated that the enemies have no choice but to accept defeat and surrender.

United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres claimed on the 14th that the agreement achieved a permanent ceasefire and reopened the Strait of Hormuz, which was a "key step" in resolving the war in the Middle East.

"The Secretary-General hopes that all parties can build on this new momentum and redouble their efforts to finally resolve the conflict," Guterres' spokesman Stephane Dujarric said in a statement.
