Iranian officials said late Thursday that major portions of a draft framework agreement between Iran and the United States aimed at ending the war have been completed, but cautioned that the text still requires approval by senior decision-makers in Tehran and that no final deal has been reached.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei was cited by state-run Press TV and state-affiliated Tasnim News Agency as saying that major sections of a potential memorandum of understanding were nearing completion despite what he described as repeated disruptions caused by shifting U.S. positions and military pressure.
