Trump said he hoped the process would be conducted quickly, easily and smoothly: "We look forward to working together with Iran and the entire Middle East in the future," he said. The American president also states that, "at the appropriate time and when everything is calm", the US will collect nuclear waste buried under granite mountains and destroy it.
This Saturday morning (13), Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that the United States and Iran had agreed on the terms for a peace agreement that would end the months-long conflict in the Middle East: "We are closer to a peace agreement than ever before," Sharif published on the social network X, a post shared by Donald Trump, American president.
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei said the signing of a peace memorandum will not take place this Sunday: "We will have to wait and see the exact date of the signing of the memorandum of understanding, although it should not be tomorrow."

Baghaei says that the possibility of signing the memorandum in Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, in the coming days cannot be ruled out, but that he "should be cautious" when making any comments about the signing date.
Sharif added that Pakistan is now preparing for an electronic signature expected within the next 24 hours, followed by technical-level negotiations in the coming weeks.
"We would like to thank the United States of America and the Islamic Republic of Iran for their continued commitment during the negotiations and extend our sincere thanks to our brothers in the region for their support. We are confident that this historic peace agreement will form a solid foundation for lasting peace," Sharif posted.
A senior US government official told Reuters he believes there is a "solid agreement with Iran".
The prospect of an end to the war gained strength after US President Donald Trump announced on Thursday (11) that negotiators had reached a consensus. Iran first claimed that nothing was finalized yet, but changed its tone hours later: the Iranian foreign minister said that a peace deal had "never been closer."

Trump criticizes Iran
This Friday morning, the US president went so far as to say that the details of the agreement published by the US press are false and criticized Iran for passing information to media outlets. Trump also called Iran's leaders "very dishonorable people to deal with."
"With them, there is no negotiation in good faith. INCREDIBLE! They better get organized, and FAST!", Trump wrote on his social network Truth Social.
Hours later, however, Trump reposted a message from Iranian Foreign Minister Abás Araqchi. In the text, Araqchi states that an agreement between his country and the United States "has never been so close."

Agreement after bombs
The proximity of an agreement between the two countries was announced by Trump himself on Thursday (11).
After announcing a third night of attacks and saying he intended to control Iran's oil and gas, Trump called off the offensive and said negotiators had reached a consensus on "final points" of the peace proposal.
The American president also said that a definitive agreement with Tehran "may be signed over the weekend." The signing would take place in Europe and would be attended by his vice president, JD Vance, according to Trump.
Trump said the "memorandum of understanding" has already been approved "by everyone in Iran," including the country's supreme leader, and that it is a great deal, "because Iran will never have a nuclear weapon." Minutes after Trump's speech, however, Iran stated that the country had not yet approved any agreement. "No text for the initial memorandum of understanding with the United States has been approved," state news agency Fars said.
New attacks
US and Iran resume attacks in Persian Gulf
The indications of an agreement come after the United States and Iran returned to exchanging attacks, even under a ceasefire.
The new escalation began after the crash of a US military helicopter during a flight over the Strait of Hormuz region. After the episode, Trump accused Iran of having attacked the aircraft and said he would have to fight back.
On the same night, the US bombed defense systems on Iranian territory and radars in Hormuz. Iran responded with attacks on a US base in Bahrain. On Wednesday (10), the USA carried out a new attack, responded by Tehran with missiles launched again at countries in the Persian Gulf.
Iran announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and said the escalation had further complicated talks for a peace deal, as well as rendering the ceasefire currently in effect "meaningless."
