In a significant development in the Middle East, French President Emmanuel Macron has hailed the US-Iran ceasefire as a major breakthrough, calling it "very good news". The agreement, which brings an end to the recent escalation of tensions between the two nations, has been met with cautious optimism by world leaders. The ceasefire comes after months of heightened tensions, which saw the US and Iran engage in a series of tit-for-tat actions, including the US drone strike that killed top Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani. With the agreement in place, the international community will be watching closely to see if it marks the beginning of a new era of diplomacy between the US and Iran.
