Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that the United States and Iran have agreed to a framework for a peace deal, with the final text of the agreement reached.
Pakistan is now preparing for an electronic signing expected within the next 24 hours followed by technical-level talks next week, Sharif added.
The proposed agreement would reportedly lead to an extension of the April 7 ceasefire by 60 days, during which the Strait of Hormuz would gradually reopen.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Friday that terms dealing with Iran's nuclear program would be finalized in the 60 days after the initial agreement is signed. He said the parties could agree to extend that period.
