ERBIL (Kurdistan24) - Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced on Saturday that a peace agreement between the United States and Iran is likely to be finalized and signed within the next 24 hours, describing the negotiations as closer to success than at any previous stage.

In a message posted on his official X account on Saturday, Sharif said preparations are underway for the electronic signing of the agreement immediately after its finalization.

"We are closer to a peace deal than ever before," Sharif wrote. "With finalisation likely expected in the next 24 hours, Pakistan is preparing for the electronic signing of the peace deal immediately after, followed by technical level talks next week."

Sharif thanked both the United States and Iran for what he described as their continued commitment throughout the negotiations, which Pakistan has helped facilitate.

"We would like to thank United States of America and Islamic Republic of Iran for their ongoing commitment during the negotiations," he said.

The Pakistani premier also expressed appreciation to regional countries that supported the diplomatic process.
