Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Ismail Baghai said that the text of the memorandum of understanding with the United States has been agreed upon on key points.
Modern.az reports that his words were given citing Press TV.
"The text has been practically agreed upon on key points. The problem is that the contradictory position of the United States has always caused disruptions in this process," Baghayi said.
However, the Iranian diplomat indicated the reason for the delays.
Some time ago, US President Donald Trump suggested that the agreement with Iran could be signed in Europe this weekend.
The situation in the Middle East escalated again after US President Donald Trump accused Tehran of delaying negotiations and ordered an attack. The crash of an American military helicopter near the Strait of Hormuz was a pretext for escalation. On the night of June 11, the US fired 49 Tomahawk cruise missiles at Iran. In response, Tehran struck American military bases in the region and closed the Strait of Hormuz to tankers and merchant ships.
