Summary
Trump said he expects all parties to honor the Iran ceasefire deal and called for a complete halt across fronts including Lebanon, Hezbollah and Israel.
The agreement he recently signed with Tehran requires Iran to dilute its uranium stockpile while the U.S. waives sanctions, allowing Iranian oil to be sold freely.
JD Vance said Washington has already begun easing military restrictions on shipping to Iran, adding that 12.5 million barrels passed through the Strait of Hormuz by Wednesday evening.
Trump argued the deal is already pushing oil prices down and stocks up, though Israel has denounced the agreement.
