Washington/Tehran: Negotiations between the United States and Iran aimed at reducing tensions and ensuring the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz are ongoing, but no final agreement has been officially confirmed.
US President Donald Trump has expressed optimism that a deal could be reached soon. However, Iranian officials have cautioned that several key issues remain unresolved and that no formal agreement has yet been signed.
Reports indicate that the proposed framework may include restoring normal maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz and launching further technical talks on Iran's nuclear program in the coming weeks.
Pakistan has reportedly played a mediating role in the discussions, while Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has expressed hope for a diplomatic resolution. Iranian authorities, however, maintain that negotiations are still underway.
Major sticking points include sanctions relief, the return of frozen Iranian assets, and the future handling of Iran's enriched uranium stockpile.
Analysts note that until both Washington and Tehran officially announce and ratify an agreement, claims regarding a finalized deal should be treated with caution.
Breaking: As of now, no official confirmation has been issued by both sides regarding a completed US-Iran agreement on the Strait of Hormuz.
