Trump aims for Iran deal signing on birthday amid conflicting signals

President Donald Trump has expressed confidence in signing a memorandum of understanding with Iran on Sunday to end the Iran war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. However, Iran's state media and foreign ministry have denied that a deal will be signed on that specific day, suggesting that Tehran may be hesitant to provide Trump with a birthday gift. Despite these conflicting statements, mediators believe an agreement is close, with potential sticking points including Iran's demands for sanctions relief and the U.S. stance on phased relief tied to Iran's nuclear program.
