The United States is reportedly aiming to conclude its confrontation with Iran by April 9, according to Israel’s Ynet, which cites unnamed sources.
The report claims that negotiations between U.S. and Iranian representatives could take place this week in Pakistan. It also states that Israel has not been informed in advance about the talks.
An unnamed source suggested the timeline could be politically significant, potentially allowing U.S. President Donald Trump to visit Israel on April 22, during its Independence Day celebrations.
Background on negotiations
Trump previously stated that Iran had initiated contact with Washington to avoid potential strikes on its energy infrastructure. He also claimed there was a “very serious chance” of reaching an agreement.
However, Iranian officials continue to deny that formal negotiations are taking place with the United States, saying such statements are politically motivated and aimed at influencing energy markets and regional dynamics.
Conflicting narratives
While U.S. sources suggest rapid diplomatic progress, Iranian authorities maintain that no direct talks are underway, highlighting continued uncertainty over the status of any potential agreement.
