End of the Iran War?Trump: Iran deal to be signed tomorrow

“The agreement should be signed tomorrow”

According to US President Donald Trump, an agreement is planned to be signed this Sunday in efforts to end the Iran war. Immediately afterwards, the Strait of Hormuz should be reopened, he wrote on his Truth Social platform. Trump did not provide any information about how and where the agreement would be signed or by whom exactly. There was initially no confirmation of this from Iran, but also no denial.

Recently, there were already increasing signs of a possible early agreement on a framework agreement between the USA and Iran. This should be a starting point for in-depth discussions between Washington and Tehran. In addition to opening the Strait of Hormuz, it will reportedly extend the ceasefire by 60 days and be the starting point for negotiations over Iran's nuclear program.

Trump emphasized in his post that Iran would not receive any funds in this first step. In due course, when everything has calmed down, they will go to Iran and recover Iran's spilled uranium reserves. These should then be diluted and destroyed – “whether in Iran or in the United States”.

“We have to wait until the exact date of the signing is determined”

A few hours earlier, the Prime Minister of the mediating state of Pakistan, Shehbaz Sharif, had written on They are also preparing for discussions on a technical level next week. In addition to Trump, the Pakistani Foreign Ministry also wrote that an electronic signing ceremony was planned for Sunday.

Trump shared a screenshot of Sharif's post, which could be interpreted as a signal that he is not averse to an electronic signature. This would – if it actually happens this Sunday – coincide with his 80th birthday. The US news portal Axios reported that US officials and sources in the mediating states had confirmed that the signing would take place virtually. This is primarily for logistical reasons. Otherwise, Vice President JD Vance, who leads the US delegation, would not have managed to return to the US in time before Trump leaves for the G7 summit in France on Monday morning.

On Thursday, the US President spoke in the White House of a likely signing that could perhaps take place in Europe this weekend.

This Saturday, Iranian Foreign Office spokesman Esmail Baghai also saw the possibility of an initial agreement with the USA on a framework agreement in the coming days. “We have never been so close to an agreement and it is therefore very likely that the MoU will be finalized in the coming days,” he said, according to the Iranian news agency Irna.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi announced on Friday that he saw a framework agreement within reach. “The Islamabad Declaration of Intent has never been so close to completion,” he wrote on
