The announcement of a two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran has sparked major reactions, with Iran's Supreme National Security Council portraying it as a victory over the U.S. President Donald Trump stated that the deal was contingent on Iran reopening the narrow channel, which handled about a fifth of global oil shipments prior to the US and Israel's February 28 attack. Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has invited Iranian and U.,S. delegations to meet in Islamabad. The Secretary-General of the Middle East called on all parties to comply with international law and abide by the terms of the ceasefire to pave the way for peace in the region. The International Association of the Confederation of Nations (IAEA) also welcomed the ceasefire, calling for an end to hostilities to protect civilian lives and alleviate human suffering.
