In an interview with the New York Post, Trump said “good news” on renewed negotiations may emerge within days. Responding to a query via text, he said: “It’s possible!”

Pakistani sources in Islamabad said diplomatic engagement with Iran has intensified, raising the likelihood of fresh talks within the next 36 to 72 hours.

The development follows Trump’s decision to extend the current ceasefire with Iran, giving its leadership more time to present a unified proposal.

“I have directed our military to continue the blockade and remain ready,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social, adding that the ceasefire would remain in place until discussions are concluded.

Officials in Islamabad said the truce has largely held despite heightened rhetoric, signalling restraint from both sides.

“The ceasefire is holding, and there has been no military escalation,” a source said, describing the situation as a sign of positive intent.

Pakistan continues to play a central mediating role, leveraging diplomatic channels to bring both sides back to the negotiating table, the source added.
