Iran has denied reports that a landmark agreement with the United States is ready to be signed in Geneva on Sunday, even as a White House official revealed details of what Washington describes as a strict performance-based deal requiring major Iranian concessions.
According to FOX News, a White House official said Iran has agreed in principle to a framework under which it would receive sanctions relief only after fulfilling a series of commitments.
The official said the proposed agreement would require Iran's nuclear material to be destroyed and removed, its nuclear program dismantled, and no frozen funds released until Tehran fully complies with its obligations.

The official also claimed that Iran would commit to keeping the Strait of Hormuz open and halt financial support for groups designated by the United States as terrorist organizations.
However, an Iranian source close to the negotiating team strongly rejected reports that a deal has already been finalized.
Speaking to Iran's semi-official Fars News Agency, the unnamed source described claims that an agreement would be signed in Geneva on Sunday as "a complete lie."
"The claims by Trump and some foreign media outlets that the agreement has been finalised and is scheduled to be signed in Geneva on Sunday are completely untrue," the source said.
The source added that Iran's internal review and decision-making process had not yet been completed, suggesting negotiations remain ongoing.

The conflicting statements come hours after US President Donald Trump accused Iran of leaking inaccurate details of the emerging agreement to the media.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump claimed reports published by Iranian media did not reflect the terms agreed upon during negotiations.
"The terms that Iran leaked out to the Fake News have NOTHING to do with the terms that were agreed to in writing," Trump wrote.
He further accused Tehran of acting in bad faith, saying, "What they said, including their weak and pathetic statement on having a deal, bears no relation to the truth."
Trump ended his message with a warning, stating: "They better get their act together, and FAST!"
The latest developments highlight continuing uncertainty surrounding the US-Iran negotiations, with both sides offering sharply different accounts of the status of any potential agreement.
