"Based on this request, I have agreed, for the future benefit of the world and, likewise, the survival of a successful and prosperous Iran, to cancel the attack, subject to being able to rapidly make a deal," he added.The US President also said Israel had joined the United States in supporting the pause in military action while diplomatic efforts continue."The Country of Israel joins me in this commitment. Get to work, everybody, and get it done," he wrote.The remarks come amid heightened tensions between Washington and Tehran following months of military strikes, including disruptions to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and repeated threats of further escalation.
