Tehran says considering plan for Iran, US presidents to sign deal

Iran's Foreign Ministry stated on May 13, 2024, that Tehran is considering a plan for the presidents of Iran and the United States to sign a deal. This statement follows remarks made by former U.S. President Donald Trump, who indicated on May 12, 2024, that he expects an agreement with Iran to be signed "shortly." Trump did not provide a specific date for the potential signing. The nature of this proposed deal remains unspecified in public statements from either side. However, the development suggests a potential shift in diplomatic engagement between the two nations. The Iranian Foreign Ministry's acknowledgement of considering such a plan marks a significant, albeit preliminary, step in diplomatic discussions.
