The 60-day negotiation window established under the US-Iran ceasefire has officially expired without a final deal, according to reports. President Donald Trump has reportedly not addressed the expiry, instead posting numerous tweets on unrelated topics, signaling disengagement from the diplomatic track.
The 60-day negotiation window established under the U.S.-Iran ceasefire expired at midnight Sunday without a final agreement, as The Zioneer reported earlier tonight. A subsequent report indicates that President Donald Trump has not publicly addressed the expiry, instead posting multiple tweets on unrelated subjects — a sign of apparent disengagement from the diplomatic process.
The thread of developments began in early June, when the Islamabad Agreement framework was brokered, establishing a 60-day ceasefire and setting a deadline for comprehensive talks. Trump publicly confirmed the imminent agreement on June 12, and negotiations centered on nuclear enrichment limits and maritime security. As the window approached its end, The Zioneer reported at 16:49 Jerusalem on Sunday that the ceasefire had officially ended and the agreement collapsed without achieving its stated objectives. Simultaneously, Iran declared that "no progress" had been made during the negotiation period.
The broader diplomatic context includes Trump's prior warning, reported by the New York Times on June 15, that the U.S. would demand 20% of regional revenue or resume strikes if the Iran deal failed. Separately, the U.S.-Iran ceasefire framework was linked to the Israel-U.S. Memorandum of Understanding, which Trump described as merely a 60-day ceasefire extension.
It remains uncertain whether the informal cessation of hostilities will hold in the absence of a deal. No formal extension or new negotiations have been announced, and Trump's silence may signal a shift away from diplomacy. The possibility of resumed U.S. kinetic operations, as previously threatened, has not been ruled out.
