U.S. and Iranian technical teams could meet again as early as Monday in Islamabad for a second round of negotiations aimed at advancing a deal to ease tensions and address the ongoing conflict, Pakistani government sources told Anadolu Agency (AA) on Saturday.
Sources said that the technical-level teams of both sides are expected to meet in Islamabad for the next round of talks "most probably on Monday" to finalize a negotiated settlement of the weeks-long conflict between the U.S. and Iran that has crippled global energy supplies and daily life in the wider Middle East.
"Once they reach a draft, President (Donald) Trump, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and some other important heads of states will air dash to the capital (Islamabad) to sign the deal," a source said, referring to multiple reports that alongside Trump and Pezeshkian, leaders of several other regional countries are also expected to attend the signing ceremony.
Negotiators from the two warring sides are continuing to exchange messages through Islamabad since the conclusion of the first round of the talks on April 11-12 in Islamabad to reach a "maximum understanding" before the beginning of the next phase of the much-awaited parleys, sources added.
