Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has claimed that the United States and Iran are closer than ever to reaching a peace agreement,
with a final deal potentially being concluded within the next 24 hours.
Sharif said Pakistan is preparing to electronically endorse the agreement once it is finalized, followed by technical-level discussions expected next week.
He thanked both Washington and Tehran for their cooperation during negotiations and expressed hope that the agreement would lay the foundation for lasting regional peace.
According to reports, the proposed deal will initially focus on ending hostilities and reopening the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz.
Subsequent negotiations are expected to address Iran’s nuclear program and the handling of its enriched uranium stockpiles.
A successful agreement could significantly reduce tensions in the Middle East and help stabilize global energy markets affected by the ongoing conflict.
