U.S.-Iran agree on 60-day ceasefire extension, but Trump must approve: reports

New Delhi ( The Indian View team) : U.S. and Iranian negotiators have reached a tentative agreement to extend the ceasefire by 60-days and launch talks on Iran's nuclear program but ‌President Donald Trump has yet to ‌approve it, according to a .S. official familiar with the matter.

Earlier, the U.S. military on Thursday (May 28, 2026) slammed Iran for violating a fragile ceasefire after Kuwait reported coming under attack in the latest flare-up that threatened ongoing negotiations to end the war. U.S. Central Command said that Kuwait had intercepted missiles launched by Iran late on Wednesday (May 27) night, calling the Iranian attack on one of America’s top allies in the Persian Gulf an “egregious ceasefire violation.”

The U.S. and Iran have traded strikes throughout the week, even as President Donald Trump has said he’s confident his administration is making headway in negotiations with Iran to end the war.
