Israel-Iran war: Trump provides ceasefire details, as Israel, Iran react
Al Jazeera reported that the White House believes negotiations began between Mr Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and after securing Israel’s agreement to halt its strikes, the president turned his attention to Iran.
Mr Trump reportedly contacted the Emir of Qatar, requesting assistance in reaching Tehran. “I’ve got the Israelis, but we need the Iranians on side,” Mr Trump is believed to have told the Qatari ruler.
The emir, along with Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, subsequently engaged in a series of diplomatic efforts that eventually brought Iran to the negotiation table.
However, Iran may have a different interpretation of how the ceasefire unfolded.
According to Al Jazeera, a local Iranian media outlet reported that Mr Trump called Iranian officials, pleading for a ceasefire.
