Iran has said a final decision on the framework of a peace deal with the US is still under review, despite Donald Trump claiming it would be signed on Sunday.
The US president said the deal with Iran was scheduled “to be signed tomorrow” in a post online, claiming the Strait of Hormuz will then be “open to all”.
He added that the administration’s “relationship with Iran is a much different and better one than previous administrations have had”.The US president ended his post on a sinister note as he warned there is the “ultimate alternative, hopefully never to be used again” if process does not work “smoothly”.
However, Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said the exact timing of the signing of the Islamabad memorandum will not be on Sunday but could happen “in the coming days”.
It had been reported that Trump is scrambling to secure a peace deal with Iran before the G7 summit with world leaders on Monday.
Meanwhile, Tehran announced the funeral for their late supreme leader Ali Khamenei would take place on 4 July, with a burial date set for 9 July.
