While direct talks between the US and Iran remain absent, Araghchi reportedly conveyed “written messages” to the US via Pakistan regarding key issues.

US President Donald Trump on Sunday issued a stark warning to Iran, claiming the country has just three days to agree to a ceasefire deal to end the war, or its oil pipelines will “explode from within."

Speaking to Fox News, Trump explained that if Iran is unable to continue exporting oil, the pipelines would eventually fail both mechanically and due to natural forces.

“If for any reason that line is closed because you can’t continue to put it into containers or ships, which has happened to them, they have no ships because of the blockade, what happens is that line explodes from within, both mechanically and in the earth," Trump said.
