IRAN'S RESPONSE TO TRUMP: THE DEAL IS NOT YET FINAL
Later, the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a written statement regarding U.S. President Donald Trump's remarks that an agreement would be signed between the two countries in the coming days. The statement indicated that the Tehran administration would announce its position later.
The ministry's statement included the following remarks:
“We had previously announced that most of the articles of the agreement had been resolved, but the American side wanted to add new demands.
All articles of a possible agreement will be reviewed by the highest authorities, and we will announce our position later.
What is being said about the time and place of the signing of the agreement is media speculation. The agreement with Washington is not yet final.”
