Pakistan PM seeks two-week extension to Trump's deadline on Iran
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday requested that US President Donald Trump make a two-week extension to a deadline he imposed on Iran to end its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
"To allow diplomacy to run its course, I earnestly request President Trump to extend the deadline for two weeks. Pakistan, in all sincerity, requests the Iranian brothers to open Strait of Hormuz for a corresponding period of two weeks as a goodwill gesture," Sharif said in a post on X.
Trump has given Iran until 8pm EDT in Washington - 3:30am in Tehran - to end its blockade of Gulf oil or see the US destroy “every bridge and power plant in Iran”.
