Washington, Mar 23: U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday said Washington has held “very good and productive” discussions with Iran and has decided to delay planned military strikes on Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure for five days.
In a post announcing the decision, Trump said the pause was based on the “constructive” nature of ongoing talks, which he indicated would continue through the week. He added that further action would depend on the outcome of these discussions, describing them as aimed at a “complete and total resolution” of hostilities.
“I am pleased to report that the United States of America and the country of Iran have had, over the last two days, very good and productive conversations regarding a complete and total resolution of our hostilities in the Middle East. Based on the tenor and tone of these in-depth, detailed, and constructive conversations, which will continue throughout the week, I have instructed the Department of War to postpone any and all military strikes against Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure for a five-day period, subject to the success of the ongoing meetings and discussions,” his post read on Truth Social.
