Iran has celebrated a newly announced two-week ceasefire agreement, which aims to facilitate peace negotiations with the United States. The agreement, aided by backchannel talks involving Pakistan, seeks to restore traffic in the Strait of Hormuz, a vital route for global oil supply, with 100-135 tankers expected to pass daily. However, skepticism persists among the Iranian populace regarding the commitment of the US and Israel to uphold peace, particularly in light of recent attacks on Iranian infrastructure and counter-strikes on Kuwait and the UAE. Public demonstrations in Tehran showcased thousands of citizens expressing both joy and distrust, as many burned American and Israeli flags, voicing concerns over the reliability of these nations. Internal divisions within Iran's leadership, particularly among hardline factions, may further complicate the ceasefire's stability ahead of scheduled US-Iran talks in Pakistan. Analysts suggest that resolving these internal rifts is crucial for the ceasefire to evolve into a lasting peace.
