OPINION | Was Trump-brokered Iran-Israel ceasefire planned in advance?

Share
After 12 days of intense bombing and missile attacks, life is now returning to normal both in Tel Aviv and Tehran as the US-brokered ceasefire now appears to be holding. People in both countries have been asked to come out of the bunkers. Airspace in the Middle East has now reopened with international flights resuming. At the NATO summit in Europe, US President Donald Trump, claiming credit for the ceasefire, said, “The US hit on Iran ended the war…Iran’s nuclear programme has been put back by decades..” Asked if the US would strike Iran again if it rebuilds its nuclear enrichment program, Trump replied: “Sure”.
