Washington — President Donald Trump extended an open-ended ceasefire with Iran on Tuesday while ordering the US Navy to continue enforcing a blockade in the Strait of Hormuz, and he asserted on Truth Social that the blockade is costing Iran about USD 500 million per day. The extension delayed the expiration of a two-week truce set for April 22 and followed mediation efforts involving Pakistan. Washington's decision prompted the White House to call off Vice‑President J.D. Vance's scheduled Islamabad trip and came after Tehran reportedly declined to attend talks; markets reacted on April 21 as Brent crude rose above US$100 a barrel, and US officials said they would wait for a unified Iranian proposal before resuming high-level diplomacy.
