US President Donald Trump Extends Iran Ceasefire Indefinitely Amid Stalled Peace Negotiations
US President Donald Trump announced on April 21, 2026, that the United States is indefinitely extending the ceasefire with Iran, which was scheduled to expire on April 22. The decision followed the indefinite postponement of Vice President J.D. Vance's diplomatic mission to Islamabad after Tehran reportedly rebuffed Washington’s latest proposals. Despite the extension, Trump warned of renewed military action if no agreement is reached, while Iranian commanders threatened to retaliate against regional oil infrastructure.
