Washington and Tehran express increasing optimism that weeks of halting negotiations may be drawing to a close \u2013 key US politics stories from Saturday 13 June at a glance
Donald Trump says a deal with Iran to end the war would be signed on Sunday, and that the strait of Hormuz would be \u201copen to all\u201d immediately after.
Iran had offered a different timeline earlier in the day, but nonetheless signalled an agreement was in the offing, as both the warring parties and their mediators expressed increasing optimism that weeks of halting negotiations were drawing to a close.
\u201cThe Deal is scheduled to get signed tomorrow, and immediately after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN TO ALL,\u201d Trump said on his Truth Social platform. Since an 8 April truce paused the worst of the fighting, Trump has repeatedly insisted a deal was near only for the wrangling to drag on.
The Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baqaei, had said earlier on Saturday that the date of the signing was yet to be determined, but \u201cit will not be tomorrow\u201d. However, he added: \u201cThe possibility of this happening in the coming days cannot be ruled out.\u201d
Trump has claimed that the deal would prevent Tehran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, as well as reopen the strait of Hormuz to international shipping. In a Truth Social post<\/a>, Trump said that Iran \u201cno longer want a Nuclear Weapon, nor will they have one, either through purchase, development, or any other form of procurement\u201d.
