News Desk - Switzerland has confirmed that talks between Iran and the United States are planned for June 19 at the Bürgenstock resort, where the two sides are expected to formally sign a memorandum of understanding before entering a 60-day negotiation window.
According to reports, the framework includes a pause in hostilities, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and talks on Iran’s nuclear programme along with possible sanctions relief. Iranian and U.S. representatives are expected at the signing, with Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf and U.S. Vice President JD Vance named in reports as likely key figures.
Pakistan has also claimed a role in helping broker the understanding, with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif saying both sides had agreed on the wording and that the deal would take immediate effect once signed. But Swiss officials have presented the June 19 event as a signing ceremony rather than a finished peace settlement, which means the process still appears to be at the memorandum stage.
In short, the latest reports point to a formal signing in Switzerland and the start of a broader negotiation process, not the end of the conflict itself. The real test will be whether both sides carry the understanding forward after the ceremony.
