Negotiators from the United States and Iran have reportedly agreed on a framework for a 60-day extension of the ongoing ceasefire, although final approval from US President Donald Trump is still pending, according to American sources.

The development comes amid diplomatic efforts to prevent renewed violations of the fragile truce from escalating and disrupting ongoing negotiations between both countries.

Reports indicated that Trump had circulated the draft peace agreement among key allies, including Israel, as consultations continue over the proposed deal.

Pakistan’s Foreign Minister, Mohammad Ishaq Dar, is also expected in Washington for talks with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio as part of efforts to advance negotiations.

Sources confirmed an earlier Axios report that both sides had reached an understanding on a memorandum aimed at extending the ceasefire and opening the door for broader talks over Iran’s nuclear programme.

However, there was no immediate official confirmation from either the White House or the Iranian government.

According to the report, the proposed 60-day agreement would guarantee unrestricted commercial shipping through the Strait of Hormuz without tolls or interference, while Iran would be required to clear all naval mines within 30 days.

In return, the United States would gradually ease its naval blockade on Iranian ports, depending on the restoration of commercial maritime activity.

The draft memorandum also reportedly includes commitments by Iran not to pursue the development of nuclear weapons.

One of the major issues expected to dominate negotiations is the handling and disposal of Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium.
