Prior to discussing the March 23 inter-ministerial briefing on recent developments in West Asia, I would like to state that I will not discuss the March 23 PIB press conference, which was led by joint secretaries-level officers from the Narendra Modi government, for two reasons: first, the press conference took place following Prime Minister Modi’s speech, and second, I have already explained everything in my March 24 at 2:30 am tweets following Prime Minister Modi’s speech in the Lok Sabha 23 days after the USA and Israel jointly attacked Iran on February 28.
I would like to conclude by mentioning the press conference that took place on March 23 at the #NationalMediaCenter in #NewDelhi. Since I firmly believe in God, I now think that the issue, which started after the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, may be resolved. I say this because #USA President #DonaldTrump announced via a Truth Social post on March 23 at 7:23 Eastern Time, that I have instructed the Department of War to postpone any and all military strikes against Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure for a five-day period, subject to the success of the ongoing meetings and discussions.
NOTE: The Persian Gulf, often known as the #ArabianGulf, is a West Asian Mediterranean Sea. Situated between #Iran (#Persia) and the #ArabianPeninsula, the body of water is an extension of the #ArabianSea and the wider #IndianOcean. The #StraitOfHormuz connects it to the Gulf of Oman in the east. The northwest coastline is formed by the Shatt al-Arab river delta.

I AM PLEASED TO REPORT THAT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, AND THE COUNTRY OF IRAN, HAVE HAD, OVER THE LAST TWO DAYS, VERY GOOD AND PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS REGARDING A COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION OF OUR HOSTILITIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST. BASED ON THE TENOR AND TONE OF THESE IN DEPTH, DETAILED, AND CONSTRUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS, WHICH WILL CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE WEEK, I HAVE INSTRUCTED THE DEPARTMENT OF WAR TO POSTPONE ANY AND ALL MILITARY STRIKES AGAINST IRANIAN POWER PLANTS AND ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE FOR A FIVE DAY PERIOD, SUBJECT TO THE SUCCESS OF THE ONGOING MEETINGS AND DISCUSSIONS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER! PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP
