2 week ceasefire

[9ja Amaka]

The two weeks cease fire will not have much effect on the economy,  but I think its a good start for the nation's involve to try to reach an agreement,  so the war can come to an end. The middle east is a very important regoin for the economy globally  so it's really bad for them to remain in this war. I think the nation's involve should swallow their pride and come to an agreement,  so the world can be at peace and also ease this stress and hardship on the people.

You said it right. There's not that much effect on most economies with that period because it's still a recovery period for most with the impact that the closing of the Strait. And we don't even know what will happen next if this ceasefire will be extended and will lead to the end of the war or, there will be new factors that will prolong this for each of these leaders will have another disagreement and attacks. What we can hope for now is the positive progress of this ceasefire, and the reconstruction of the damages that have been done to all involved parties that were attacked.

Of course, two weeks is not enough to restore oil and gas supplies in full, especially given that the infrastructure has been destroyed or damaged. Well, this is just a break (besides, it is unclear whether the truce will be respected in practice). By itself, this war can only end with the destruction of one of the opponents (Israel or Iran). The United States is likely to withdraw from this conflict after successful negotiations (this is just a guess). In any case, a truce is better now than a further escalation of attacks.

If the negotiations go well which I think it will, the war is likely to end. If the war end, the United States will have no reason not to withdraw from the region. I don’t think any of the two countries will be destroyed before an agreement will be reached. I believe the reason for the ceasefire is to look for a possible way to end the war. With the direction that the war has turned to, I think Iran has seen that there is need for them to go to the discussion table to make sure they don’t get more damage than they have received already. Fighting two powerful nations like Israel and USA at the same time is not looking good for them.

Hopefully this so called ceasefire will make things a lot easier for
other economies. Diesel and gas in my nation is alarmingly high.
The ceasefire does predict that things will improve on an already
High priced market. Its no joke, everything is spiking up
outrageously.  

I don’t think the two weeks ceasefire can stabilize things, how will the world economy be stabilize just within 2 weeks, and I don’t really have much believe that the war won’t continue even before the 2 weeks end, I don’t think Israel are really happy with the cease fire, they just want the United state to keep on bombing Iran. I just hope after the 2 weeks ceasefire they just going to reach an agreement, and everything is going to be settled. The war is affecting almost everyone because the price of oil keeps on increasing because of the strait of hormuz that’s being blocked by the Iranian government. Let’s just hope they will come to agreement and the war is going to end, we really want peace.

[goldkingcoiner]

Iran and US have agreed to a 2 week ceasefire. In a statement after Trump's ceasefire message, Iranian foreign minister Seyed Aragchi said that Iran would halt its "defensive operations" and allow safe passage through the Hormuz "via coordination with Iran's armed forces". He added that the US had accepted the "general framework" of the Iranian 10-point plan.

What does this mean? First of all, don’t breathe a sigh of relief just yet. We still don’t know whether this is the start of actual productive negotiations between Iran and USA. Second, oil prices will not suddenly go back to normal. The 2 week period where the Strait of Hormuz may open isn’t enough time for oil to be taken and distributed to the rest of the world. The ceasefire may help but as long as this war is not over, the economies of many nations will still not recover.

To my up-to-date understanding of the situation: Israel keeps attacking Hezbollah. Iran answered them with they will close the strait again unless ALL hostilities from ALL sides cease. Ceasefire is a joke, Netanyahu needs an excuse to keep away from his awaiting criminal trial. So he will keep himself in war limbo. Every day, with every bomb, Netanyahu's Israel is running out of breath.

Iran should keep the Hormuz Strait open. Although Iran does not have the power to militarily fight even a weak Israel, it can claim a political victory and a profitable future with Europe.

I don't think there's going to be much economic improvement because currently, I think the U.S didn't accept the 10point agenda that Iran presented in order to end the war. Infact, while the talks was still ongoing, there was stories of Lebanon being bombed and that am sure has twarted any peace talks.
Let's just hope countries affected by this war get to adjust quickly and get back to managing their economy in order to not get further affected by a war brewing in another part of the world.

As long as it's not a permanent end to the war, a ceasefire doesn't actually provide a real, sustainable solution. It's only temporary, and the situation could return to its previous state or worsen if Iran or the US can't find common ground in their conflict. therefore, what's needed is full-scale peace talks to restore order and prevent thousands of lives from being lost in vain due to war.

I don't see this ceasefire as a direct access to a permanent solution to the problem as there may be disagreement on the negotiation process that is if Iran refuses the terms and conditions given to put an end to the war.
Just as stated above what the world needs right now is full scale peace and not temporary or conditional resolution as the US has offered to Iran now,  the war has claimed alot of souls and even damaged properties which will take all nations years and time to replace and going back to that same war is what should be avoided with all cost. But with what I am seeing now I can smell more destructive actions in Iran because they are not going to dance to the tone of US and may strike Israel if time is not taken.

[slapper]

When the announcement was made, oil fell 14% and the markets rejoiced and the Strait remains at 5 percent capacity. Shipping companies haven't resumed. Premiums have not been lowered. The IRGC continues to control traffic by using a small coastal route and charging up to $2 million per ship to pass. This is the ceasefire??? I don't even know what to call this. A military-implicated press release? Since the real physical reality has not changed. The tankers are still stuck. The supply chains remain cut off. Six weeks of airstrikes do not reverse themselves since two governments released statements on the same day.

And your argument about oil not returning to normal, it is even worse than that. Even assuming that everything opens tomorrow, it would take months to recover after something like this. We are expecting at weeks just to clear the maritime backlog, more weeks to restart shut-down production, months to rebuild strategic reserves. And that's assuming (which you shouldn't) the ceasefire holds.

Iran thinks Lebanon is included. No, no, says the US and Israel. These are not small points, this is the basic form of what peace would even resemble. It is impossible to negotiate when the two parties are literally negotiating over various issues.

Russia benefits. China benefits. Energy costs remain high, the US is wasting credibility and ammunition, and the real people can do nothing but wait.. They wait for a system that treats their survival as a secondary calculation to figure out whether it wants to stop killing them yet. The idea of ceasefire is not bad. But to call this one a ceasefire is to be generous to the point of lying.

[Uhwuchukwu53]

First I will commend both parties despite not being the end yet but journey of thousands miles begin with a step, if by tomorrow grievances are table for discussion there must be a way out for settlement, there is nothing greater than peace to everyone, counting on both side no body will claim victory because each side are lossing, war is not one sided thing both parties must loss, just like Russia Ukraine today, hard it been they have given peace a chance more damage's that is happening currently would have stopped. Side both side have some things that borders them which is subject to discussion, it must come to fruitfulness as it will not only end in one side but can be in a balance scale based on how their negotiations could go. When ever a war is having this face I see peace resolution having it part closely because without ceasefire and negotiations war can't stopped.

They don't do due diligence, they just dish out all they from Trumps Truth Social handle and Fox news. Tell them to relearn Geopolitics and they’ll find it a lot difficult. They recently came to an agreement with the help of Pakistan defense minister but Israel went behind to twat the plans of the ceasefire killing and targeting more Lebanese.

You're naive,  Donald Trump has requested for a ceasefire and negotiations more than thrice and they've been rebuffed by Iranian government, Iranians are not begging for a deal to be made and If they don't control Israel and fail to keep to the necessary agreement, everything goes back to square especially closing the strait. Mind you, Us government has just paid $6 billion of frozen funds asking them to open the Strait of Hormuz.. To school you again, the US and Israel are the aggressors not Iran who's only defending herself, off course they have the right to defend themselves.

Yes, you are right, but at least with the ceasefire, most countries can breathe a little and prepare future plans to face bad things, especially regarding the economy if war happens again. Careful planning is needed because I myself do not see that there will be long-term peace between the two countries unless Trump offers a deal that is truly acceptable to Iran, because this is where the important point lies.

Most certainly, activities within the region wouldn’t just spring to a start with people flooding the streets and living life as though, there isn’t any tension in the space. There would always be a high level of skepticism as this window of space would allow both sides to gather intelligence and arm their armory towards what could come after the 2weeks ceasefire period.

There ability to come to terms on these ceasefire though, points to an underlying truth on how easily the war can come to an end if both sides could look into and settle their differences.

[Coyster]

So did he present the original ceasefire agreement?

I don't think such documents are usually made available to the general public, so it prolly makes sense that what made it to the media was fake. I get it that a lot of people do not trust Trump, he says a lot of things that aren't true, that's for sure, but he might be right on this one, and the media could be trying so hard to stay relevant, hence the fake publication.

That said, we'd see what happens in the next 2 weeks. If hostilities resume or if we are on a path to a lasting peace. It is hard to tell, but the global economy very well needs this respite and a complete resolution would set us on a path to economic recovery.

[Agbamoni]

What is the essence of the ceasefire if nothing will change? After seeing the news, I was hoping that the purpose of the ceasefire was to allow the safe passage of oil ships to neighboring nations whose economies are affected by the war.

I heard China forced Iran to accept the ceasefire because if the US destroys Iran's infrastructure, China may no longer get cheap oil from Iran. If this is true, then Iran and China have something they both benefit massively from each other.

The ceasefire was some kind of distraction because, according to sources, the situation has not changed. Iran is charging to pass through Hormuz, and they are not ready to give it up. Both sides have their own points ready that they want approved. I think Iran has 10 points and the US has 15 points. Now I have heard that Iran wants Lebanon to be included in the ceasefire, while Israel is taking full advantage of the moment and firing at Lebanon. They are fighting now.

A meeting is going to take place in Pakistan tomorrow, where both parties will be hosted by Pakistan, and they may end up with some final deal. Maybe they can end the war tomorrow, or maybe they will worsen the situation, but if they both have agreed to meet, that is a good thing, so maybe there will be good news.

We should care more about the meeting's result than the ceasefire because it can be violated, bro.

It was no business of the U.S.A to intervene in Iran. Supposedly, they wanted to end the Islamic regime for the people of Iran, but it's kind of ironic when you're bombing the other country. They couldn't care less, they just wanted to stick their nose in an attempt to take advantage of Iran's oil. Trump though didn't expect that Iran had been preparing for this for years. There's also no point in discussing the so-called ceasefire, since Israel broke it just a few hours after it was announced, by extensively bombing Lebanon and killing over 200 people.

This question needs to be directed to the president of United State of America because he's the one controlling Iran and forcing them to do whatever he wants so that he can come out to brag about how he made them to accept the ceasefire when they are achieving nothing with it. Firstly I think China and Iran has something going on between them but they can't do anything secret that will not be beneficial to the US if not the US will still destroy them and the oil will still not get to China and the other countries. Something is not adding up but soon Donald Trump will voice it out.

It does mean another talks that may never be done so good. Exactly, Trump ain't gonna back down without some outrageous demands and he'll probably push this if Iran wouldn't agree to what he about to say which has been for a month now. I'm not expecting to get that rollback even this year, it will probably be more costly especially if this ceasefire wouldn't materialize to a good deal.

Do you think Iranian government wouldn't charge a dime to any ships passing there because it's International waters? Trump made another warning that he'll not gonna make that happen but I think they'll never know that, they'll surely charge something passing there.

[r_victory]

The problem is that one side will always accuse the other of breaking the agreement in order to attack again, and this has already happened, less than 24 hours after the agreement was announced. It's a fragile agreement in an even more fragile relationship between three nations.
