Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has stated that the proposed US-Iran peace agreement is “closer than ever” to completion, urging media outlets to avoid speculation until the memorandum is formally finalized. The statement comes amid intensive diplomatic efforts involving multiple regional actors. US President Donald Trump reinforced the positive mood by reposting Araghchi’s remarks on social media, signaling Washington’s support for ongoing negotiations. However, Iranian officials stressed that no final decision has yet been made regarding the signing venue or timing. Key unresolved issues reportedly include Iran’s nuclear program, sanctions relief, and compensation mechanisms, though both sides appear closer to an agreement than at any point in recent months.
