United States President Donald Trump on Monday brokered the peace talks between Iran and Israel, a day after the US struck three nuclear facilities in Iran, a senior White House official told Reuters. According to reports, Trump held talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while his team, including Vice President JD Vance allegedly held discussions with Iran. 

The official spoke to Reuters on the condition of anonymity asserting that Israel agreed to the proposal as long as Iran did not launch fresh attacks. Iran agreed to the condition and stated that no further attacks would take place, the official said. 

The team involved in negotiations with Iran comprised Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff. "Let's get on the phone with the Iranians," the official quoted Trump as telling his officials, Reuters reported. 바카라Get me Bibi. We're going to make peace,바카라 Trump added, according to the official. 

Trump had earlier released a statement on social media claiming that Israel and Iran have reached a "complete and total ceasefire," effectively ending what he termed the "12-Day War."

Iran previously said that the US betrayed diplomacy by attacking the nuclear sites. Iranian Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei had sent his Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi to Moscow on Monday to request for more help from Russia after the biggest US military action against the Islamic Republic since the 1979 revolution. 

Trump had earlier stated that he would take two weeks to decide if he will attack Iran or not but entered the Israel-Iran conflict on Sunday, air striking Iran바카라s heavily fortified nuclear sites in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.
