(PARIS and LONDON) — Foreign leaders expressed hope for a full peace deal to end the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran in their reactions to Tuesday’s two-week ceasefire, which was first announced by President Donald Trump and later confirmed by Iranian officials.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said in a post to X that the ceasefire agreement “will bring a moment of relief to the region and the world. Together with our partners we must do all we can to support and sustain this ceasefire, turn it into a lasting agreement and re-open the Strait of Hormuz.”
Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani likewise suggested the ceasefire was “a very positive development” which “moves us toward a peace agreement — for the civilian population, for the region, and for Israel — but also for our economy.”
German Friedrich Merz thanked Pakistan for its mediation efforts, adding in a post to X, “The aim now is to negotiate a lasting end to the war. We are in close coordination with our partners on this matter.”
Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, said the ceasefire brought “much-needed de-escalation” and said that further negotiations are “crucial.”
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, who has been a prominent European critic of the war, said in a post to X that the ceasefire was “welcome news,” but added, “Momentary relief must not make us forget the chaos, the destruction, and the lives lost.”
“The Spanish government will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket,” Sanchez added. “What is needed now: diplomacy, international law, and PEACE.”
French President Emmanuel Macron stressed that the situation in Lebanon — another theater of the conflict in which Israel is fighting against the Iran-backed Hezbollah militia — is “critical.”
Macron said the ceasefire extended to Lebanon, as did Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, though Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said overnight that Lebanon was not included in the agreement. Israel continued intense strikes in Lebanon, including on Beirut, on Wednesday.
Macron called the ceasefire “a very good thing” and said the question of Lebanon is “one of the most delicate.” Hezbollah, Macron said, made a “strategic error” by attacking Israel and dragging Lebanon into the regional crisis, but said Israel’s strikes and occupation of southern Lebanon “cannot be a long-term response.”
Persian Gulf and other regional nations also welcomed the ceasefire in Iran, though several reported fresh Iranian drone and missile attacks on Wednesday.
Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Ministry expressed its support for the pause in a statement posted to X, while Qatar’s Foreign Ministry described the ceasefire as “an initial step toward de-escalation.” Doha also stressed “the necessity for the Islamic Republic of Iran to take the initiative to immediately cease all hostile acts and practices.”
Oman — traditionally a mediator of U.S.-Iranian talks — said in a Foreign Ministry statement that it affirmed “the importance of intensifying efforts now to find solutions capable of ending the crisis at its roots and achieving a permanent cessation of the state of war and hostile acts in the region.”
Jordan’s Foreign Ministry in a post to X “emphasized the importance of opening the Strait of Hormuz and ensuring freedom of international navigation without restrictions in accordance with international law.”
Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi said in a post to X that the news “undoubtedly brought relief to the hearts of millions of peace-loving people across all corners of the earth,” adding that Cairo valued Trump’s “decision to heed the voice of reason.”
The Turkish Foreign Ministry released a statement expressing its backing for the peace process, adding, “We will continue to extend all necessary support for the successful conclusion of the negotiations to be held in Islamabad,” referring to Friday’s planned talks.

Andra Day has spent the last few years displaying acting her chops, but she hasn’t forgotten about the music. Speaking to Variety, she reveals she’s actually cooking something up, though she doesn’t know how she will release it.
“I haven’t decided whether it’s going to be a series of EPs or a full album yet,” says Andra, who notes she has been able to make some long-desired collaborations happen.
“[I am] finally getting in the studio with producers who I’ve been friends with for a while and we’ve been talking about working together for a while,” she adds.
Andra recently wrapped filming on Percy Jackson and the Olympians‘ third season, which she’s eager for fans to see.
“I’m so excited for people to see that because I’m actually a fan of the show, even before I was cast to play a character in the show,” she says. “So excited about that.”
First up, however, Andra is set to perform during the After Party portion of the Night Out for the No Kid Hungry event, which will raise money for the No Kid Hungry campaign and its fight to end childhood hunger.
“Making sure that kids have food and making sure that they can sustain themselves and families can sustain right now is of the utmost importance,” Days says of her involvement. “I know the event will be beautiful, but I think everyone at the event including the organizers are most excited about the outcome.”
Warren G is also set to perform; Anthony Anderson will serve as host of the dinner.

Meek Mill is the latest artist to join Cardi B for a Little Miss Drama tour show. He came out onstage Tuesday during her stop at Xfinity Mobile Arena in his native Philadelphia and performed his hit “Dreams and Nightmare” to a sold-out crowd.
As he rapped the song, Cardi jumped around and joined in on some lyrics. The crowd also loudly rapped along.
“Shake the building,” Meek wrote alongside a video of his performance. He added in the comments, “It was sooo loud I couldn’t hear myself on beat lol.”
Cardi reshared the post on her Instagram Story, writing, “IT WAS A MOVIEEEEE.”
Cardi previously teamed with Meek on the 2018 song “On Me” from his album Championships.
Despite her busy schedule, Cardi is also making sure to keep track of her money. In an Instagram Live Monday, the rapper vented about thieves who had been using her credit card.
“Y’all are going to jail,” she said, noting she has “clear pictures” of the culprits in the act.
“One thing about me, I don’t play about my money,” she also said.
The Little Miss Drama tour comes to Washington, D.C., on Wednesday.
“I busted out of my britches. That’s how you know it’s gonna be a good night.”
That’s the beginning of the just-released trailer for Lainey Wilson’s new Netflix documentary, before cutting to her singing “Hang Tight Honey” for a packed arena.
While the preview’s only two minutes long, it packs some major revelations — and lets the CMA and ACM entertainer of the year clear some things up.
“A lot of people think this was an overnight success,” Lainey says. “I’ve been here 14 years. So a 14-year overnight success.”
“I spent a decade being the one you didn’t see coming,” she adds in a voice-over. “I am putting everything I built on the line to make sure they never forget the name Lainey Wilson.”
Tracing things back to her Louisiana roots, Lainey recalls feeling at home in front of an audience from an early age.
“I remember at 5 years old feeling more comfortable onstage than I do anywhere else,” she says. “I was going and playing at random things. I played on top of an air conditioning unit.”
“My payment was free hotdogs the rest of my entire life. That is one of the biggest flexes I will ever have,” she quips.
The big surprise? Lainey’s making plans for motherhood with fiancé Devlin “Duck” Hodges.
“I feel it in my heart that I was called to be a mama. But sometimes the Lord just has other plans,” she says, going on to reveal, “I’m gonna freeze my eggs in April, put them babies on ice.”
Lainey Wilson: Keepin’ Country Cool premieres April 22 on Netflix.

Is today gonna be the day you spend five figures on a historic Noel Gallagher guitar?
The acoustic Epiphone EJ-200 that Gallagher used when writing songs for Oasis’ 1995 album, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, is going up for auction via Sotheby’s.
The guitar is signed by Gallagher along with a letter of authenticity, which states that it can be seen in the “promotional video” for the Oasis classic “Wonderwall.”
According to Sotheby’s, the guitar is expected to go for between $60,000 and $80,000.
(What’s the Story) Morning Glory? marked Oasis’ sophomore album and helped Britpop go global thanks to the aforementioned “Wonderwall,” and fellow singles “Champagne Supernova” and “Don’t Look Back in Anger.”
Oasis played those three songs and more from (What’s the Story) Morning Glory? on their 2025 reunion tour, which marked their first live shows in 16 years and ended the long-running feud between Noel and his formerly estranged brother, Liam Gallagher.
