TL;DR

Iranian officials addressing the details of the draft memorandum of understanding with the US stated that during the final rounds of talks, the ballistic missile program was not discussed, according to a report. The statement suggests the missile issue remains outside the scope of the emerging framework deal.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Iranian officials have clarified that the country's ballistic missile program was not a topic of discussion in the final rounds of negotiations with the United States, according to a report. The statement addresses the content of the draft memorandum of understanding. This aligns with earlier assessments, including analysis from the desk noting that the emerging framework lacks missile limits (The Zioneer, Jun 11, 23:22). It also follows reports that the draft MOU has not yet been finally approved by Iranian authorities (The Zioneer, 00:49 Jerusalem). The specific timing and venue of the final talks referenced were not detailed in the report, and it remains unclear whether the missile issue was discussed in earlier rounds or is deferred to later talks.
