April 16, 2026 (MLN): U.S. President Donald Trump signaled a possible visit to Islamabad if a peace deal with Iran is finalized and signed there, expressing optimism that an agreement to conclude the ongoing conflict is close, as Reuters reported. 

Speaking to reporters on the White House lawn before departing for Nevada and Arizona, Trump said that Tehran has “agreed to almost everything,” raising expectations of a breakthrough.

“If a deal is signed in Islamabad, I may go. They want me,” he stated.

The U.S. president also indicated that a ceasefire between Washington and Tehran, set to expire next week, could be extended, though he suggested it might not be necessary if a deal is reached in time.

Trump further claimed, without providing evidence, that Iran has agreed to relinquish its enriched uranium, which is believed to be stored in underground facilities following last year’s U.S.-Israeli airstrikes.

The proposed agreement reportedly aims to ensure that Iran abandons its nuclear program.
