Al Jazeera's latest update shows that after mediation by Pakistan, the U.S. and Iran are on the brink of reaching a significant agreement, with the final draft expected to be announced in the coming hours.
According to details disclosed by Al Jazeera, once this draft is formally announced by both the U.S. and Iran, it will take immediate effect. In terms of specific actions, both countries must immediately halt media warfare and all military operations, achieving an unconditional and comprehensive ceasefire across all fronts—air, land, and sea. Additionally, both parties have explicitly committed to never targeting each other's economy, civilian structures, or military facilities.
On the bilateral and international principles level, the draft reiterates that both countries must adhere to international law and the relevant provisions of the UN Charter. Both sides commit to respecting each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity and will not interfere in each other's internal affairs. Furthermore, the agreement includes provisions to ensure the navigation of critical waterways, explicitly requiring the maintenance of freedom of navigation in the Gulf of Oman, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Arabian Gulf.
To ensure the smooth progression of the agreement, the U.S. and Iran plan to establish a dedicated joint mechanism responsible for mediating disputes and supervising the implementation of the terms. For those unresolved contentious points, both parties have agreed to initiate formal negotiations within seven days. As a core condition for exchange, if Iran can effectively fulfill its commitments under the agreement, the U.S. will gradually lift the current sanctions imposed on Iran.
