Later on Thursday, Axios reported that the U.S. ​and Iran had reached agreement ​on a memorandum of understanding to extend their ceasefire for ​60 ‌days. But ⁠President Donald Trump has yet to ‌approve it. In an attempt to speed up the negotiations, Pakistan’s foreign minister, Mohammad Ishaq Dar, will fly to Washington on Friday to meet his US counterpart, Marco Rubio.
