US President Donald Trump says the United States and Israel have agreed to pause planned strikes on Iran, provided Tehran rapidly agrees to a new deal. Trump said Washington was still 'locked and loaded and ready to go' but decided to cancel the attack after several West Asian nations pushed for de-escalation. The proposed deal would require Iran to eliminate its nuclear threat and immediately reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global oil shipping route. The announcement follows reports that Trump discussed the conflict with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, who reportedly stressed the importance of dialogue. Iran has also held talks with Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Turkey as diplomatic efforts intensify. In this video, Firstpost explains why Trump paused the strikes, the conditions behind the proposed deal, and what the latest developments could mean for the Iran-US conflict. --- Donald trump | Iran | US | Iran War | Iran Strikes | Saudi Arabia | Firstpost #donaldtrump #ir
