Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Baghaei said Pakistan and Qatar are working to de-escalate tensions, and no other mediators are currently involved. He stated that Iran and the U.S. have not launched any negotiations, citing Washington’s violation of a previously signed memorandum of understanding (MOU). The MOU’s timeline was designated for talks on sanctions relief and nuclear issues, and there is no so-called "60-day negotiation deadline". Baghaei added that negotiations between Iran and Oman remain ongoing, with both sides carefully developing a maritime transit roadmap. Talks with Oman have dragged on due to complex issues, multiple involved parties, and attempts by some countries to undermine the process, he explained. He also stressed that Iran will not make decisions under time pressure or ultimatums. (Source: Jinshi)
