Pezeshkian underscored in a post on his X profile that the main obstacles to genuine negotiations lie in Washington’s failure to honor its commitments, as well as the imposition of sanctions and the persistence of threats.

US President Donald Trump announced the extension of the ceasefire with Tehran, at Pakistan’s request, until Iran submits a proposal, without specifying a new deadline.

According to reports from the public broadcaster Kan, US sources informed Israel that the deadline set by Trump would expire on Sunday.

Meanwhile, a White House official told Fox News that the ceasefire could be extended for three to five days, although Israeli sources stated that the situation remains uncertain and depends largely on political decisions in Washington.
