trump’s Role as Peacemaker: Ceasefire Achieved Between Israel and Iran After US Intervention

Following a 12-day armed conflict that began with a preemptive strike on iran’s nuclear facilities, a ceasefire agreement has been brokered between Israel and Iran, with former U.S. President Donald Trump playing a significant role in the intervention. Trump, who announced the ceasefire on social media, stated that both nations had agreed to a “full and complete ceasefire,” which Iranian broadcasters confirmed went into effect at 1 PM Korea time.

Trump’s Diplomatic Intervention

Trump’s administration communicated the U.S. position to Iran through multiple channels. During the U.S. operation, Steve Witkov, a Middle East expert, informed Iranian Foreign Secretary Avas Aragch that the operation was a one-off event with targets limited to the nuclear program, according to U.S. online media Axios.Vice President JD Vance and secretary of Defense Pitt Hages also publicly confirmed this stance.

According to Reuters, Trump personally contacted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to mediate the ceasefire. Iranian authorities, Vance, Secretary of State mako Rubio, and Witkov were also contacted directly or indirectly.

Did You Know? The U.S. has historically played a crucial role in mediating conflicts in the Middle East, often acting as a key negotiator between Israel and its neighbors.

Netanyahu’s Perspective: A “Hidden Winner”

Netanyahu is also expected to receive praise in Israel. He initiated operations on June 13th with the goals of delaying Iran’s nuclear capabilities and weakening its conventional attack capabilities. He began an air raid with the tacit agreement of the United States, eventually securing U.S. participation. Many observers believe that the U.S. strategic bomber attack on Iran’s Fordo nuclear facility, located deep underground, would not have been possible without Netanyahu’s persistent persuasion.

At a press conference on June 22nd, Netanyahu emphasized that the Israeli army had destroyed over half of Iran’s ballistic missile launchers. He explained that Trump decided to join the Iranian attack after Netanyahu
