Pakistan: US-Iran Deal Possible Within 24 Hours

Pakistan, a key mediator in the Middle East conflict, said Saturday that the United States and Iran could finalize an agreement to end the war “within 24 hours.” Both sides have expressed optimism about reaching a deal. The announcement comes despite recent skirmishes in the Strait of Hormuz, which have disrupted the region and the global economy. Mediators and the warring parties say a long-awaited accord is in its final stages. The talks follow an April 8 truce and weeks of negotiations on a peace agreement.
