US President Donald Trump says he called off air strikes on Iran because a peace deal is close to being agreed on and a time and place of the signing are “to be announced shortly”.
-
Iran’s Foreign Ministry says “the main part of the text was almost finalised but the Americans were being greedy and raising new requests”.

Earlier, Trump warned Iran would be hit “very hard” and threatened US forces would take Kharg Island and other oil infrastructure points.

Jun 11, 2026 - The United States and Iran traded a new round of attacks early Thursday, bringing the countries closer to all-out war after President Trump vowed to keep up military pressure on Tehran to make a peace deal.
The tit-for-tat strikes this week risked pushing the conflict into a perilous new phase, with no clear signs of whether the fighting could be contained. Iran’s foreign ministry said on Thursday that the latest round of U.S. strikes on Iran had effectively rendered the cease-fire “meaningless,” and warned of “highly dangerous consequences,” without giving specifics.

Jun 10, 2026 - President Trump threatened Iran again on Wednesday, warning that Tehran would “pay the price” for taking “too long to negotiate” an end to the war, a day after saying a peace deal was imminent.
As Mr. Trump both threatens to reignite the monthslong conflict and promises peace, neither is happening, leaving it unclear how the war will end and prolonging the turmoil in the Middle East. Mr. Trump made the comments on social media hours after the U.S. military said its jets had hit Iranian targets in response to an attack on an American Apache helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz on Monday.

Jun 09, 2026 - For weeks, the parameters of a preliminary agreement to end the war between the United States and Iran have been clear to its negotiators. The hang-up? How to devise a deal so each side can claim a win.
Washington and Tehran — both neither fully victorious nor completely defeated in the war — badly want a deal. But they also need something they can present as favorable to the hawks and hard-liners back home.
Added to this fundamental dispute are the peculiarities of the two countries’ leaders.

Israel Just Crossed a Line America Can No Longer Defend | Jeffrey Sachs
Jun 08, 2026 - On May 23, President Donald Trump said a deal to end the war with Iran was almost finalized and would be “announced shortly.” Yet more than two weeks later no deal has been unveiled, and U.S. and Iranian forces continue to exchange fire regularly.
Last week, an Iranian drone attack heavily damaged Kuwait’s international airport. On Sunday, Iran launched ballistic missiles at Israel, and Israel struck back. The Strait of Hormuz remains closed for all but a trickle of traffic.
So what happened? When the proposed terms, which apparently included unfreezing billions of dollars in Iranian assets, leaked out, American hawks on Iran went ballistic.

The Iran - Israel Strikes
Jun 07, 2026 - When Israel and the United States attacked Iran in late February, some Iranian opponents of the Islamic Republic hoped that it would bring an end to decades of theocratic rule they saw as oppressive.
Now, after devastating strikes and amid a teetering cease-fire, those hopes have been snuffed out. Feelings of disillusionment and despair have taken their place, driven by a reported death toll of 1,700 civilians, vast destruction and an economic implosion that has made daily life a struggle.
