Trump says may visit Pakistan to sign Iran deal

Donald Trump said he may travel to Pakistan to sign a deal with Iran as negotiations advance and regional ceasefire efforts continue.

Donald Trump said the United States and Iran are “very close” to reaching a peace agreement, as a 10-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon took effect.

Speaking at the White House on April 16, Trump said Tehran had agreed in principle to give up its stockpile of enriched uranium, a central issue in the negotiations.

He added that he may travel to Islamabad if a final agreement is signed there, as talks are expected to resume in the coming days.

“We are very close to a deal with Iran,” Trump told reporters, adding that ensuring Iran never acquires nuclear weapons remains a key U.S. objective.

The remarks come as Israel and Lebanon began a 10-day ceasefire aimed at reducing hostilities and opening the door to broader security talks, with both sides seeking to contain escalating conflict along their border.

Under the truce, Lebanon has pledged to prevent attacks by Hezbollah, while Israel has agreed to halt offensive operations, reserving the right to respond to immediate threats.

The ceasefire follows weeks of cross-border clashes tied to the wider regional conflict involving Iran-backed groups and Israeli forces, raising fears of a broader war.

Diplomatic efforts led by the United States and regional actors have intensified to prevent further escalation and stabilize the situation.

Last week, JD Vance led a U.S. delegation to Islamabad for talks with Iranian officials, but the talks ended without a final agreement.

The White House said discussions are ongoing over a second round of talks, likely to be held again in Pakistan with continued mediation efforts.

Trump’s comments signal growing optimism around a potential deal, though key details remain unclear as ceasefire efforts and diplomacy continue across the region.
