As only hours remain before the deadline set by US President Donald Trump for the Tehran administration to reach an agreement with Iran, negotiations between the parties continue.
Following Trump's remarks that "intense negotiations are ongoing" regarding the latest contacts, an Iranian official speaking to the UK-based news agency Reuters evaluated the Tehran administration's stance on the developments. The unnamed official stated, "We are ready for both war and peace."
As the deadline set by the US for Iran approaches, Shehbaz Sharif had called on Trump to extend the deadline by two weeks and proposed that the Tehran administration keep the Strait of Hormuz open for passage for two weeks. An Iranian official had reported that the Tehran administration viewed Pakistan's proposal positively.
