on the details and timeline for a breakthrough.<\/em><br \/>Save<br \/>Share<br \/>United States President Donald Trump has said an initial agreement to end the <a href=\"\/news\/2026\/6\/13\/iran-war-day-106-us-and-iran-say-deal-close-but-lebanon-fighting-continues\">US-Israeli war with Iran<\/a> is \u201cscheduled to get signed tomorrow\u201d.<br \/>But that announcement, made on Trump\u2019s Truth Social account on Saturday, contradicts an earlier statement by Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei.<br \/>In remarks carried by Iran\u2019s IRNA news agency, Baghaei said a memorandum of understanding would not be signed on Sunday and that negotiators are not planning to travel immediately to Geneva, Switzerland, in preparation for such an event.<br \/>According to Baghaei, a signing could happen \u201cin the coming days\u201d.<br \/>Hours later, Trump wrote, \u201cThe Deal is scheduled to get signed tomorrow, and immediately after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN TO ALL.\u201d Sunday marks Trump\u2019s 80th birthday.<\/p>\n<p>In recent days, Iran and the US have <a href=\"\/news\/2026\/6\/12\/pakistan-says-final-agreed-upon-text-of-iran-war-ceasefire-deal-reached\">repeatedly contradicted<\/a> each other when describing the details of the anticipated agreement, even as both sides have broadly signalled that a deal was closer than ever before.<br \/>Still, no terms have been officially released, with US and Iranian officials on Friday stressing that the agreement had not been finalised.<br \/>Beyond opening the Strait of Hormuz, Trump said in Saturday\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/truthsocial.com\/@realDonaldTrump\/posts\/116743808155352167\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">post<\/a> that the agreement would be a \u201cA WALL TO NO NUCLEAR WEAPON!\u201d and that \u201cno money would exchange hands\u201d.<br \/>Trump also maintained that \u201cat the appropriate time, when all is calm, we will go in and get the Nuclear Dust\u201d, referring to Iran\u2019s stockpile of enriched uranium.<br \/>But speaking on Iran\u2019s Press TV on Friday, Iranian \u2060\u2060Foreign \u2060\u2060Minister Abbas Araghchi said the initial memorandum of understanding would only be a launch point for negotiations about the future of Iran\u2019s nuclear programme.<br \/>He added that the signing would result in an immediate pause in fighting, but that Iran and Oman would continue to administer the Strait of Hormuz.<br \/>The issue of lifting foreign sanctions against Iran and unfreezing the country\u2019s assets would be discussed following the signing of the memorandum of understanding, Araghchi said.<br \/>The latest flurry of diplomacy came after the US and Iran traded strikes for two days this week, threatening to end a pause in fighting that has persisted since April 8.<br \/>The US and Israel launched the war on Iran on February 28, amid ongoing indirect talks on the future of Iran\u2019s nuclear programme.<br \/>The US and Israel had also launched a 12-day war on Iran in 2025, during another round of nuclear talks.<br \/>Iranian officials have said that deep distrust towards the US has slowed the progress towards creating a lasting agreement to bring the current war to an end.<br \/>Trump, meanwhile, has repeatedly pledged to reach a deal that would surpass the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), struck under his Democratic rival, former President Barack Obama.<\/p>\n<p>That agreement, from which Trump unilaterally withdrew in 2018, saw Tehran agree to limit its nuclear programme and allow for international inspections in exchange for sanctions relief.<br \/>For years, Iran has maintained that it is building a nuclear programme for civilian use only and is not seeking a nuclear weapon.<br \/>In his post on Truth Social, Trump again pledged that any deal reached would be more stringent than the JCPOA.<br \/>\u201cOur relationship with Iran is a much different and better one than previous Administrations have had,\u201d he said.<br \/>\u201cHopefully, this process will all work out quickly, easily, and smoothly,\u201d he added.<br \/>\u201cIf it doesn\u2019t, we have the ultimate alternative, hopefully never to be used again!\u201d he wrote, without elaborating on what his threat meant.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Al Jazeera English:<\/p>\n<p><a
