President Donald Trump on Monday evening announced a deal to initiate a ceasefire to the Israel-Iran conflict, with the goal of having the war considered “ended.”
Trump wrote on Truth Social: “CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE! It has been fully agreed by and between Israel and Iran that there will be a Complete and Total CEASEFIRE (in approximately 6 hours from now, when Israel and Iran have wound down and completed their in progress, final missions!), for 12 hours, at which point the War will be considered, ENDED!
“Officially, Iran will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 12th Hour, Israel will start the CEASEFIRE and, upon the 24th Hour, an Official END to THE 12 DAY WAR will be saluted by the World. During each CEASEFIRE, the other side will remain PEACEFUL and RESPECTFUL.
“On the assumption that everything works as it should, which it will, I would like to congratulate both Countries, Israel and Iran, on having the Stamina, Courage, and Intelligence to end, what should be called, ‘THE 12 DAY WAR.’
“This is a War that could have gone on for years, and destroyed the entire Middle East, but it didn’t, and never will! God bless Israel, God bless Iran, God bless the Middle East, God bless the United States of America, and GOD BLESS THE WORLD!”
Vice President JD Vance appeared on Fox News to discuss Trump’s message, and said: “This is a great thing.”
“Now Iran is incapable of building a nuclear weapon with the equipment they have because we destroyed it.”

“The president’s been extremely clear about America’s national objective here.”
“For Israel, they’ve accomplished an important military objective … For the Iranians, this is a new opportunity to pursue the path of peace … They’re just not very good at war.”
