(Central News Agency, Tehran, April 21, comprehensive foreign report) Iran's state television announced that the ceasefire agreement with the United States, which took effect on April 8, will expire at 3:30 AM Tehran time on April 22 (0:00 GMT on April 21), which is equivalent to 8:00 AM Taiwan time on April 22.
According to Agence France-Presse, this end time aligns with when the 14-day ceasefire agreement came into effect. However, US President Donald Trump recently stated that the deadline would be one day later, on the evening of April 22, US Eastern Time.
Mediator Pakistan had earlier stated that the ceasefire agreement was expected to end at 23:50 GMT on April 21.
Trump said that if an agreement is not reached before the two-week ceasefire with Iran expires on the evening of April 22, US Eastern Time, it is "highly unlikely" he would extend the ceasefire, adding that the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz would continue until a deal is finalized.
Iran's semi-official Fars News Agency and Tasnim News Agency quoted sources as saying that Tehran has not yet decided whether to participate in a new round of talks, emphasizing that "the overall atmosphere assessment is not very positive." (Compiled by Hung Chi-yuan) 1150422
