Forecast Trend Report by Period
President Donald Trump said a US-Iran agreement could be signed on June 14 if talks proceed as planned.
Walter Bloomberg reported on June 13 that Trump said a deal with Iran was scheduled to be signed the next day and that he hoped the process would wrap up quickly and smoothly.
If that does not happen, "we have the ultimate alternative," Trump added.
He also claimed the US and Iran had effectively reached an agreement, with only final documentation remaining.
A senior US administration official said both sides expect to sign on June 14. The draft agreement includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz, dismantling Iran's nuclear program and establishing an international inspection framework, the official said.
Iran, however, has maintained that no final agreement has yet been reached.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said that once the final stage of negotiations is complete, both sides will sign the agreement remotely before formally announcing it.
Markets are watching Trump's reference to a specific signing date, while remaining cautious because Iran's formal approval process is still pending and it remains unclear whether a final deal will be completed.
