The statement comes after reports suggested Islamabad shared a framework between the United States and Iran to end hostilities, which could come into effect on Monday and lead to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
The framework was exchanged between Iran and the United States overnight, sources said, outlining a two-tiered approach involving an immediate ceasefire followed by a comprehensive agreement.
However, Iran will not reopen the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for a “temporary ceasefire”, a senior Iranian official said. Reuters Monday, saying that Tehran considers that Washington is not prepared for a permanent ceasefire.
The official confirmed that Iran had received Pakistan’s ceasefire proposal and was reviewing it, stressing that Tehran does not accept pressure to accept deadlines or make a decision.

“All elements must be agreed today,” said the source who spoke about the proposal, adding that the initial agreement would be structured as a memorandum of understanding finalized electronically through Pakistan, the only channel of communication in the talks.
Axios first reported Sunday that the United States, Iran and regional mediators were discussing a possible 45-day ceasefire as part of a two-phase deal that could lead to a permanent end to the war, citing U.S., Israeli and regional sources.
The source said Reuters that the chief of defense forces and chief of army staff, Field Marshal Asim Munir, was in contact “all night” with US Vice President JD Vance, special envoy Steve Witkoff and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
Under the proposal, a ceasefire would take effect immediately, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, with 15 to 20 days to finalize a broader settlement. The deal, tentatively dubbed the “Islamabad Accord,” would include a regional framework for the strait, with final in-person talks in Islamabad.
