US President Donald Trump said he now considers the ceasefire with Iran over “Wednesday evening Washington time” but that it’s “highly unlikely” he would extend it further if a deal is not reached.

It’s “highly unlikely that I’d extend it” Trump told Bloomberg in a phone interview. The ceasefire was originally slated to last two weeks and began the evening of April 7.

CNN international diplomatic editor Nic Robertson reports on ceasefire talks from Islamabad, Pakistan. Also, retired US Air Force colonel Cedric Leighton and Eurasia Group president Ian Bremmer discuss the latest developments from the Strait of Hormuz blockade.
