NEW: Trump Sets Countdown For Iran Deal As Regime Disputes Progress

President Donald Trump announced via Truth Social Saturday that a deal with Iran is scheduled to be signed the following day. The agreement, described as a memorandum of understanding on peace, aims to end ongoing hostilities, prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, and reopen the Strait of Hormuz to maritime traffic.

“The Deal is scheduled to get signed tomorrow, and immediately after it is signed, the Hormuz Strait is OPEN TO ALL. Our relationship with Iran is a much different and better one than previous Administrations have had. Unlike Obama’s Hundreds of Billions of Dollars in payments to them, including 1.7 Billion Dollars in green, cold cash, no money will exchange hands,” the president wrote, addressing details of the proposed deal for the first time.

“At the appropriate time, when all is calm, we will go in and get the Nuclear Dust, buried deep under the powerful sunken granite mountains, thanks to our beautiful B-2 Bombers and their brilliant pilots, and downblend and destroy it, whether in Iran, or the United States. We look forward to working with Iran, and the entire Middle East, long into the future. Hopefully, this process will all work out quickly, easily, and smoothly,” he continued. The president then noted that aggressive military action cannot be ruled out should Iran balk at the deal.

“If it doesn’t, we have the ultimate alternative, hopefully never to be used again,” Trump wrote.

The deal builds on earlier statements from Trump indicating that an agreement had been “largely negotiated,” following diplomatic engagements involving regional allies and mediators. Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has similarly stated that a final, agreed-upon text of a peace deal between the U.S. and Iran has been reached, with mediators working on next steps, including a potential electronic signing.

Despite optimistic statements from both sides, the Iranian regime has disputed reports of a signing specifically on Sunday. Iran’s foreign ministry and state media indicated that the memorandum of understanding would not be signed on that date, describing some details about timing and location as media speculation.

Officials emphasized that the review and decision-making process within Iran has not been fully completed.

Nevertheless, some Iranian officials have expressed optimism. Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi stated that an agreement “has never been closer.”

He indicated that a signing could occur remotely or digitally in the coming days and described the prospective deal positively for Iran, while noting that the text is nearing finalization but remains subject to possible adjustments. Araghchi highlighted progress on elements such as extending a ceasefire, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and initiating talks on Iran’s nuclear program over a 60-day period.
