Axios: US prepares for possible Iran deal signing in Geneva UPDATED

The United States may be nearing a diplomatic breakthrough with Iran, as additional details emerge about preparations surrounding the upcoming G7 summit and recent US military airlift activity to Europe.

Axios journalist Barak Ravid, citing an informed source, reported that Washington is preparing for the possible signing of an agreement with Tehran in Geneva in the coming days.

“A diplomat from one of the mediating countries, who reviewed the points of the updated draft together with me, said that ‘the US and Iran have reached agreement on the wording of the deal,’ but acknowledged that final approval is still required,” Ravid wrote.

He added that logistical preparations appear to be underway in parallel. “At the same time, US Air Force aircraft departed for Europe last night carrying equipment ahead of a possible trip by Vice President Vance to Geneva for a signing ceremony in the coming days,” Ravid noted.

Four US Air Force C-17 Globemaster III transport aircraft departed for Europe on Thursday, June 11, carrying equipment for a possible visit by Vice President JD Vance to Geneva that could take place in the coming days, according to the US government aircraft press service.

The flights form part of a broader US logistical deployment linked to high-level engagements in Switzerland. The movements coincided with additional military airlift operations supporting the anticipated attendance of President Donald Trump at the G7 summit near Geneva.

In parallel, five more C-17 aircraft delivered equipment to Geneva International Airport for the US Secret Service, the White House Military Office and the Air Force in line with preparations for security, communications and operational support tied to the summit and potential senior-level visits.
