United States President Donald Trump said the United States expects a "complete ceasefire on all fronts," including Lebanon, Hezbollah, and "Israel", amid ongoing diplomatic efforts following the recently announced Iran-US memorandum of understanding.

In a post published Thursday on his Truth Social platform, Trump emphasized Washington's alleged commitment to peace and called on regional parties to support ongoing negotiations.

"The United States is committed to PEACE, and we encourage everyone in the Middle East Region to maintain their commitment to allowing our negotiations to beautifully unfold," Trump wrote.

He added that financial markets were responding positively to developments in the region, saying that oil prices were declining while stock markets were rising.

"We expect a complete Ceasefire on all fronts, including Lebanon, Hezbollah, and Israel," Trump stated.

Trump calls for Israeli restraint in Lebanon

Trump's remarks come as Israeli attacks continue across southern Lebanon despite growing international calls for de-escalation and the announcement of a US-Iran understanding aimed at ending the recent war and stabilizing regional fronts.

Speaking on the sidelines of the G7 summit on Wednesday, Trump addressed the ongoing Israeli attacks on Lebanon, saying he wanted "Israel" to exercise "good judgment" in its actions.

The comments also coincide with Trump's supposed frustration over the civilian toll resulting from Israeli bombing in Lebanon. Despite the announcement of a memorandum of understanding between Washington and Tehran that includes a provision to end the war on Lebanon, the United States has not publicly called for a full Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanese territory.

Israeli officials have meanwhile maintained that they are not bound by the memorandum and have signaled their intention to continue occupying areas in southern Lebanon.

Iran says Lebanon clause central to agreement

Iranian officials have repeatedly stressed that Lebanon constitutes a key component of the understanding reached with the United States.

Tehran has described a ceasefire in Lebanon and an end to the war as a central element of the agreement, linking regional stability to the implementation of its provisions.

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baqaei previously stated that the continuation of Israeli attacks or the persistence of Israeli occupation on Lebanese territory would constitute a violation of the understandings reached between the two sides.
