"Any country that delivers military weapons to Iran will immediately be subject to a 50 percent tariff on all goods sold to the United States. There will be no exceptions or exemptions," Trump stated. This statement comes at a time of fragile easing of tensions in the Middle East. Recall that Trump previously announced that the United States and Iran have reached an agreement on a two-week ceasefire, mediated by Pakistan and on the condition that Tehran ensures the full opening of the Strait of Hormuz. According to his words, Iran has submitted a ten-point proposal that serves as the basis for further negotiations, with key issues already agreed upon. He added that the ceasefire should serve to finalize a broader agreement. The agreement was reached in the final moments before the deadline set by Washington, temporarily halting the conflict between Iran and the U.S. and Israel that began in late February.
