Both sides agreed on high level committee

The Chief Negotiator will report regularly to the High-Level Committee and lead working groups such as the Monitoring and Dispute Resolution Group to effectively implement the nuclear, sanctions and MoU.

The high-level committee has agreed on a roadmap to reach a final agreement within 60 days, laying the groundwork to immediately begin further technical negotiations. Furthermore, to ensure safe movement of commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz and to avoid any incidents or misunderstandings, a communication line has been created between the parties for the period specified in paragraph 5 of the MoU.

Trump had threatened Iran

Donald Trump once again threatened Tehran amid talks between Iran and America in Switzerland. He said that Iran should stop those groups in Lebanon which it supports by giving money. They are creating trouble. Trump threatened that if Iran does not do this, we will again attack Iran very strongly, as we did last week, but this time even more forcefully.

After the ceasefire between America and Iran, the situation on the Strait of Hormuz is expected to gradually become normal. On one hand, US President Donald Trump has announced a two-week ceasefire, while Iran has also agreed to open the Hormuz Strait during this period. This has brought relief news for India, because due to tension in West Asia, fuel supply in the country was being affected.

Trump said that this decision was taken after talks with Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir. He said that he was appealed to stop a major attack on Iran. Also, in view of Iran’s talk of safely opening Hormuz, they decided to stop the bombings and attacks for two weeks.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi

Iran has also agreed to this ceasefire. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said their conditions had been accepted and ships would be allowed safe passage through Hormuz for the next two weeks. This work will be done in coordination with the Iranian Army. When the war started, Iran had closed the Strait of Hormuz. This had a direct impact on India, because about 40 percent of India’s crude oil, more than 50 percent of LNG and about 90 percent of LPG comes through this route. However, later Iran gave permission to some countries including India to pass through this route, calling them friends. Apart from India, China, Russia, Iraq and Pakistan were also included in this.

2 LPG tankers coming towards India

At present, the news is that two Indian flagged LPG tankers are safely crossing Hormuz and coming towards India, while 16 other ships are still stranded in the Persian Gulf. These include LNG ships, LPG tankers, ships carrying crude oil, container ships and other cargo ships. According to a government official, the ‘Green Saanvi’ tanker carrying 46,650 tonnes of LPG will reach India on April 7, while the ‘Green Asha’ tanker with 15,500 tonnes of gas will reach the Indian coast on April 9.

How much oil does India import?

India imports about 60 percent of its LPG requirement and about 90 percent of this is supplied from West Asia. In such a situation, with the arrival of these tankers and the opening of Hormuz, the gas supply in the country is expected to improve. Now that this waterway is going to open for two weeks, the number of ships coming to India may increase and the pressure of fuel shortage may reduce.

Israel attacked Iran’s South Pars gas field, which is the source of 70–75 percent of the country’s natural gas production. At the same time, Qatar claimed that Iran attacked its Ras Laffan Industrial City, which is the world’s largest LNG export center.

March 23 – Donald Trump said that talks are going on between America and Iran to end the war. This marked the first public diplomatic initiative since the war began.

Apart from this, America and Israel also bombed universities, colleges, schools and hospitals. However, now Iran has got a big relief from this announcement of Trump.

Iran will do construction work from Hormuz Tax

Iran wants to rebuild its destroyed structures as soon as possible. He had also put a condition in the terms of ceasefire that he would collect toll from ships and oil tankers passing through Hormuz, which would be used for reconstruction works. However, before this Iran was demanding that America-Israel should pay compensation to it so that it could do the construction work.

Pakistan is once again trying to play a role on the international stage, which many people are considering contradictory. On one hand, the country itself is facing tension on many fronts, while on the other hand it is offering to mediate between America and Iran. On Tuesday (3 March 2026), Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said in the Upper House of Parliament that Pakistan is ready to hold talks between America and Iran. He proposed that talks between Washington and Tehran could be held in Islamabad.

Iran had agreed not to make nuclear weapons

Dar said that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir have played an active role at the diplomatic and defense levels to reduce tension in the region. He also said that Iran had agreed not to make nuclear weapons, but America wants Iran to end its entire nuclear program. Dar claimed that initially the talks between America and Iran were moving in a positive direction. He mentioned Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s visit to Austria, where he met the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). According to Dar, the agency chief was also hopeful that the talks were moving in the right direction.

Pakistan talks with Oman’s Foreign Minister

According to the report of Dawn newspaper, Dar also told that he had talked to the Foreign Minister of Oman. He was informed that the last round of talks between America and Iran had ended in a positive atmosphere. Dar said Oman’s foreign minister later went to Washington and met the US Vice President there to discuss the progress of talks. However, Dar expressed concern over the sudden attacks after these positive signs. He said that this situation reminds him of the events of June last year, when there was a 12-day conflict between Israel and Iran.

serious tension with Afghanistan

This mediation offer by Pakistan has come at a time when it itself is facing serious tensions with Afghanistan, internal security challenges and border attacks. In such a situation, different reactions are emerging regarding this initiative at the regional and international level.

The sounds of explosions were heard in many areas of Iran on Saturday (31 January 2026), which created an atmosphere of panic in the entire country. Meanwhile, a massive explosion occurred in an eight-storey building in Bandar Abbas city located on the Gulf coast. One person has been confirmed dead in this accident, while 14 people are said to be injured. Quoting Iranian government media, news agency AFP said that the cause of the explosion is not yet clear. Relief and rescue work is being carried out rapidly at the incident site.

Amidst the ongoing tension in Iran, US President Donald Trump, while talking to reporters at the White House on Friday (January 30, 2026), said that Iran wants to make a deal with America. Trump claimed that Iran wants to come to the path of talks to avoid military conflict. However, on the same day, Iran made it clear that its missile and defense capabilities would not be part of any kind of negotiation.

America gave deadline for talks

US President Donald Trump also said that he has given a deadline to Iran to start talks regarding its nuclear and missile programs, although its date has not been made public. Showing the seriousness of the tension, Trump said that America has sent a large naval fleet towards Iran. He said that this fleet is part of the American aircraft carrier group deployed in the maritime area near Iran.

Hope for agreement, but military options also open

Trump said that he hopes that an agreement will be reached between America and Iran. He also said that if no agreement is reached then the further situation will be considered.
