  • Iran's UN representative states that Tehran and Washington are negotiating an agreement to end their conflict, mediated by Pakistan.
  • The two nations are reportedly exchanging views through Pakistan to finalize a deal.
  • This comes amid recent missile exchanges between Iran and Israel, with the US calling for an immediate cessation of hostilities.

Tehran and Washington are actively engaged in negotiations aimed at permanently ending their conflict, with Pakistan serving as the mediator, according to Iran's permanent representative to the UN, Amir Saeid Iravani.

Iravani stated that both Iran and the United States are "exchanging opinions and perspectives through Pakistan to reach the final text." This diplomatic effort is occurring while a fragile ceasefire holds between the two nations as they work towards a permanent end to hostilities.

The negotiations take place against a backdrop of recent escalations. Iran launched missile volleys at Israel in retaliation for Israeli attacks on Lebanon, prompting Israeli responses against targets within Iran, including Tehran. The United States, through President Donald Trump, has urged both Iran and Israel to cease fire immediately following these exchanges.

Reports indicate that President Trump attempted to de-escalate the situation on Sunday, seeking to prevent Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's planned counterattack from disrupting the ongoing US-Iran negotiations aimed at ending the war.
