The two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran is set to expire soon, with President Donald Trump now publicly stating it is 'highly unlikely' he will extend it. Trump made the comment to Bloomberg, reiterating that the U.S. naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz will remain in place until a diplomatic agreement is finalized. The statement confirms the U.S. position as the deadline approaches, with no new deal yet announced and Vice President JD Vance's diplomatic mission to Pakistan still pending.
