Speaking on state broadcaster IRIB, Iranian Minister of Foreign Affairs Abbas Araghchi says a memorandum of understanding with the US has not yet been signed, but that the proposed agreement would announce an end to the war on all fronts, including in Lebanon.
Araghchi said the MoU also covers the Strait of Hormuz and the lifting of the US naval blockade against Iran.
Araghchi said negotiators had changed the text of the MoU several times. He added that the nuclear file had been pushed into a second phase because Tehran rejected Washington’s demands at this stage.
He also emphasised that the agreement would also cover Lebanon, adding: “We will never leave Lebanon alone.”
