Iran has dismissed claims by U.S. President Donald Trump that a peace agreement between Washington and Tehran could be signed within days, stating that no final decision or binding agreement has been reached. Iranian officials acknowledged progress in negotiations but emphasized that major disagreements remain unresolved, including sanctions relief, nuclear activities, and regional security issues. Trump said a deal could be signed in Europe over the weekend and would help reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global oil route. However, Iran insists it will not compromise on its core demands. Meanwhile, military tensions continue in the Gulf despite ongoing diplomatic efforts.
