The White House considered a televised address by Donald Trump to explain the Iran ceasefire but dropped the plan at the last minute.
According to multiple reports, the idea of a national address surfaced just hours after Trump publicly declared a ceasefire via social media.
The primary reason for the plan's cancellation was concern among senior aides about the lack of clarity around the ceasefire's terms.
Officials told Reuters that advisers were still working through key details and did not feel there was enough concrete information for Trump to confidently present to the American public.
A ceasefire still under strain, the agreement has not resolved key flashpoints, and the Strait of Hormuz remains blocked, contributing to major disruptions in energy markets.
Talks between US and Iranian officials are set to begin in Islamabad, led by Vice President JD Vance on the American side.
