Pakistan Says US-Iran Peace Deal Could Be Finalized Within Hours
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif stated that the US and Iran are closer than ever to a peace agreement, with an electronic signature expected within 24 hours. However, statements from Washington and Tehran indicate there is not yet full agreement on the deal's details.
Pakistan announced that a deal to end the Middle East conflict between the US and Iran could be finalized within 24 hours. Islamabad reported that the negotiations have reached the final stage and that technical contacts may continue after the electronic signature process.
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif wrote that the two sides are closer than ever to a peace agreement. Sharif indicated that a final outcome is expected shortly.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, referring to earlier talks held in Islamabad, said the process is a continuation of previous discussions. It was noted that Pakistan has played a key mediating role in the negotiations.
Differences in Messages Between the Parties
There are reportedly differing accounts from Washington and Tehran regarding the content of the agreement. The parties have conveyed conflicting messages about consensus on uranium dilution and the management of the Strait of Hormuz.
The strait is a critical route for oil and gas shipments from the Gulf to global markets. The report emphasized that since the outbreak of the war, maritime traffic and energy flows have been affected by regional tensions.
The US Central Command reported that numerous Iranian drones were launched targeting commercial vessels and were shot down by American forces. The command also stated that commercial ships continue to pass through the strait without disruption.
US President Donald Trump said that the leaked terms allegedly from Iran do not correspond to the agreed written provisions. The Iranian side, meanwhile, conveyed demands for lifting the US naval blockade and making certain changes in the strait's management.
Araghchi argued that the solution regarding enriched uranium is to dilute it within Iran. It was also reported that Switzerland proposed signing the agreement on its soil but that the signature could be done remotely.
Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar announced he discussed the peace process with his Swiss counterpart. The consecutive statements from the parties and mediators have strengthened expectations that the agreement could be completed soon.
Meanwhile, skepticism as well as anticipation was noticeable on the streets of Tehran. Some Iranians expressed disbelief that the deal would be reached quickly, while various newspapers in the country published cautious or supportive commentary on the process.
