U.S. President Donald Trump announced that an agreement between the United States and Iran, aimed at preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons, is set to be signed on Sunday. Trump asserted on Truth Social that Iran will not acquire nuclear weapons, whether through purchase, development, or any other means.

They will not get one, either by buying it, developing it, or in any other form.

According to Trump's statement, the deal will also ensure the Hormuz Strait remains open for all shipping. He further claimed that Iran has relinquished its desire for nuclear weapons and that the country's stockpile of highly enriched uranium will be managed and destroyed. "We look forward to working together with Iran, and the entire Middle East, for a long time to come," Trump added.

However, statements from the Iranian side have been less definitive. While Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, acting as a mediator, indicated that an agreement is likely within 24 hours and that Pakistan is preparing for an electronic signing, he also mentioned "technical level talks next week," suggesting further negotiations are anticipated.

The Iranian regime has denied that any agreement will be signed on Sunday. Although Iran has stated in recent days that a signing could occur within "a few days," Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi indicated late Saturday that the issue of Iran's nuclear energy program would be discussed at a later stage. CNN sources also report that Iran has taken measures in recent weeks to protect its highly enriched uranium, including demolishing tunnels and laying mines.
