According to Iranian media reports on the 22nd, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Baghaei said that Iran and the United States reached an agreement after 18 hours of negotiations, and the text of the agreement will be released by the two mediators, Qatar and Pakistan. Baghaei stated on the 22nd that the Iran-US negotiations discussed the groundwork for initiating final agreement negotiations. All parties unanimously agreed that each technical team will continue to work on issues needed to effectively implement the Iran-US understanding memorandum. "The work of the negotiation team ends here," Baghaei said. Iran and the United States have made good progress in discussing issues such as issuing Iranian oil sales permits and unfreezing Iranian assets. Baghaei said, "In a sense, today was very long for us. The talks started on Sunday morning. During the four-party talks, the United States made threatening statements, leading Iran to announce that it was unwilling to continue the talks under these circumstances." He also stated that Qatar and Pakistan are committed to continuing to advance negotiations, but Iran will not continue the negotiations in the form of four-party talks. (Xinhua News Agency)
