Iran has firmly rejected President Donald Trump's assertion that a peace agreement with the United States is scheduled to be signed this Sunday, dismissing the claim as a publicity stunt.
The US president posted on Truth Social on Saturday evening that a "very good" deal would be finalized over the weekend, but Iranian officials quickly moved to shut down the narrative.
Tehran's response underscores the deep skepticism surrounding the diplomatic timeline.
Iranian officials characterized the president's announcement as an attempt to manufacture momentum for a deal that has not yet been finalized.
The rejection highlights the fragile nature of the current negotiations and the significant gap between public posturing and the actual status of the talks.
This development adds to a week of conflicting signals regarding US-Iran relations.
