President Donald Trump meets with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir of Pakistan, Thursday, September 25, 2025, in the Oval Office. (Official White House Photo by Daniel Torok)Prime Minister of Islamic Republic of Pakistan, Shehbaz Sharif, has urgently appealed to President Donald Trump to delay his looming military deadline on Iran by two weeks.The plea comes as Trump’s Tuesday 8:00 p.m. ET deadline looms large, the moment when the United States will rain hell on Iran’s power plants, bridges, oil facilities, and critical infrastructure if the mullahs don’t immediately reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end their extortion of the global oil supply.Sharif, who has positioned himself as a would-be mediator in the crisis, issued the groveling request just hours ago.He urged Trump to extend the deadline by two full weeks “to allow diplomacy to run its course” while simultaneously calling on Iran to reopen the strait for the same period as a supposed “goodwill gesture.”Sharif wrote on X:“Diplomatic efforts for peaceful settlement of the ongoing war in the Middle East are progressing steadily, strongly and powerfully with the potential to lead to substantive results in near future. To allow diplomacy to run its course, I earnestly request President Trump to extend the deadline for two weeks.“Pakistan, in all sincerity, requests the Iranian brothers to open Strait of Hormuz for a corresponding period of two weeks as a goodwill gesture. We also urge all warring parties to observe a ceasefire everywhere for two weeks to allow diplomacy to achieve conclusive termination of war, in the interest of long-term peace and stability in the region.”Diplomatic efforts for peaceful settlement of the ongoing war in the Middle East are progressing steadily, strongly and powerfully with the potential to lead to substantive results in near future.

Iran responded by playing games, choking off global oil supplies while pretending to negotiate in bad faith.TGP also reported Trump’s chilling Truth Social warning to the Iranian regime: “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will.”TGP also reported on Iran rejecting the very Pakistan-brokered ceasefire Sharif is now desperately trying to revive, a deal the mullahs tossed aside while demanding everything from U.S. withdrawal from the Persian Gulf to reparations for Trump’s targeted strikes.According to Reuters, Iranian officials outlined a 10-point counterproposal that reportedly includes:A full and permanent end to all “hostilities” (read: no more accountability for attacking U.S. interests or choking global oil supplies)Immediate lifting of all crippling U.S. economic sanctionsEstablishment of a new “security framework” in the region that would neuter America’s allies and legitimize Iran’s terror proxiesIronclad guarantees for “safe passage” through the Strait of Hormuz — under Iranian terms, of courseMassive Western-funded reconstruction commitments to repair the damage from their own provocationsNo restrictions whatsoever on Iran’s nuclear weapons programAn end to any curbs on its ballistic missile developmentU.S. withdrawal of forces from key areas of the Persian GulfReparations payments for “damages” caused by Trump’s targeted strikesFormal recognition of Iran’s “legitimate” influence across the Middle East (including its Hezbollah, Houthis, and Hamas terror networks)Trump has made it crystal clear: America is done playing games with radical Islamic terrorists who threaten global energy supplies and American interests.While weak globalist leaders and the failed Biden regime would have caved, groveled, and sent pallets of cash to Tehran, President Trump is delivering real leverage and real consequences.The post PANIC MODE: Pakistan Prime Minister BEGS Trump for 2-Week Delay to ‘End of Civilization’ Strikes on Radical Iran Regime appeared first on The Gateway Pundit.
