On April 17 (local time), according to an anonymous Pakistani source, the two sides are expected to first sign a memorandum of understanding (MOU) and then announce a comprehensive agreement within 60 days.


Asim Munir, the Chief of Army Staff of Pakistan and the key mediator in these negotiations, reportedly visited Tehran, Iran, starting April 15, holding a series of meetings with the Iranian president and the country's top military leaders to break through the deadlock on difficult issues.


The mediation team is currently working to coordinate a compromise on three major issues: Iran's nuclear program, the right of passage through the Strait of Hormuz, and war damage compensation.



Earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House the previous day that there has been significant progress in negotiations with Iran, which are aimed at ending the war, and that the two sides are very close to reaching an agreement. He also mentioned that the next round of talks could be held over the weekend.
