The United States and Iran are reportedly nearing a diplomatic agreement to resolve their conflict, though a definitive signing is not anticipated this Sunday, June 14. Despite optimism for a breakthrough, Iranian officials have cautioned that an agreement is not yet imminent, with some claiming the U.S. has introduced new demands.

Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, a key mediator, has confirmed that both nations have agreed on the specific wording for a peace deal aimed at ending the protracted dispute. However, the Iranian Foreign Ministry has reiterated that while significant progress has been made on much of the text, a final decision on the agreement has not been reached, nor is the signing expected in the immediate future.
