Washington, D.C. – June 24, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday announced via Truth Social that he played a pivotal role in brokering a ceasefire between Israel and Iran, following days of escalating hostilities in the region. In his statement, Trump asserted that both nations had approached him “almost simultaneously,” seeking a resolution, declaring, “Israel & Iran came to me… and said, ‘PEACE!’”
Framing the agreement as a historic milestone, Trump wrote, “The world, and the Middle East, are the real WINNERS!” He emphasized the potential for a transformative future between the two longtime adversaries, adding, “Both nations will see tremendous LOVE, PEACE, AND PROSPERITY… The future for Israel & Iran is UNLIMITED, & filled with great PROMISE.”
A senior White House official, speaking to Reuters on condition of anonymity, confirmed Trump’s central role in the ceasefire negotiations. According to the official, the president personally held a high-level phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, while Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and special envoy Steve Witkoff concurrently engaged in backchannel diplomacy with Iranian representatives.
The ceasefire agreement is reportedly contingent upon a mutual understanding: Israel would suspend ongoing military operations if Iran agreed to halt any further strikes. The official noted that Iran had signaled readiness to de-escalate, indicating no immediate plans for renewed hostilities.
The breakthrough follows intense diplomatic maneuvering and marks one of the most significant interventions by the Trump administration in the current West Asian crisis.
