U.S. President Donald Trump says a deal aimed at ending the war in the Middle East would be signed on Sunday, while Iran signals that the timing is unlikely. Multiple outlets report that Trump makes the claim publicly, including via Truth Social, and that Pakistan—described as a key mediator—also presents an optimistic timetable. Pakistan’s prime minister is reported to say the agreement is closer “than ever before,” and that it could be finalized within the next 24 hours.
Iran’s response is reported as mixed or cautious. Iranian officials and/or the foreign ministry indicate that they do not expect signing to occur on Sunday, disputing the schedule offered by Trump and Pakistan. Some coverage characterizes Iran as needing more time before confirmation.
Separately, one report says Trump links any next steps on Iran’s nuclear stockpile to a later point, stating that the United States would find and destroy enriched uranium when conditions in the region are calmer.
Overall, sources describe an emerging agreement with competing public statements on when signature and finalization would happen.
