U.S. President Donald Trump says a preliminary agreement to end the war will be signed on Sunday, and he also describes a potential future process for Iran’s enriched uranium. Multiple outlets report Trump making the announcement on Saturday, with mediator Pakistan also indicating the deal could be finalized soon. Pakistan’s prime minister is cited as saying the agreement is closer than ever and could be completed within the next 24 hours.
Iran’s position differs. Several reports say Iran disputes that the signing will occur on Sunday, with Tehran signaling that additional time may be needed and cautioning that an agreement is unlikely to be confirmed on Sunday. The mixed signals are reflected in accounts from outlets summarizing statements from Iran’s Foreign Ministry and other Iranian officials.
While the outlets broadly agree that a peace-related agreement is being negotiated and that Trump and Pakistan anticipate Sunday as the signing date, they also consistently report that Iran’s government expresses skepticism about the timeline. Coverage therefore emphasizes an ongoing negotiation with no shared confirmation from all parties on when signing will take place.
