US President Donald Trump has said that Washington and Iran are close to finalising a major peace agreement, as international media reports outlined details of a draft framework covering ceasefire terms, sanctions relief and maritime security arrangements.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said extensive consultations had taken place with regional leaders, including Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Qatar’s Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani.

He said the discussions also included Pakistan’s Chief of Defence Forces Syed Asim Munir, Türkiye’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, Jordan’s King Abdullah II and Bahrain’s King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa.

According to Trump, the talks focused on a Memorandum of Understanding aimed at securing peace with Iran, with most aspects of the agreement already negotiated and only final details pending.

US-based outlet Axios reported that the proposed framework includes extending a 60-day ceasefire arrangement and ensuring the Strait of Hormuz remains fully open during that period.

The draft reportedly allows for easing sanctions on Iran, enabling expanded oil exports, while Washington could lift restrictions on Iranian ports and relax selected economic measures.

It also states that negotiations on Iran’s nuclear programme would continue under the arrangement, with assurances that Tehran would not pursue nuclear weapons.

Iranian media reports described additional clauses including mutual commitments not to launch attacks against each other or their allies, alongside broader efforts to de-escalate regional conflicts.

Iran’s Tasnim News Agency said the framework could include a phased approach addressing maritime issues in the Strait of Hormuz, while separate negotiation tracks would continue for nuclear concerns over 30 to 60 days.

However, Iranian officials have not confirmed acceptance of key nuclear-related provisions.

The The New York Times reported that discussions over Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile remain one of the most sensitive issues still under negotiation.

Trump also confirmed a separate call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, describing the conversation as positive amid ongoing diplomatic efforts.
