Primary source Internal intake · 2 reviewed intake signals · Desk window 16:39

TL;DR

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson reacted to the Pakistani prime minister's tweet by stating that while an MoU with the US could be signed in the coming days, it will not be tomorrow, and that Tehran must remain cautious due to 'instability' in the other party's statements about the process. The remark adds a new cautionary note to a fast-moving diplomatic thread.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson on Saturday afternoon addressed a tweet by Pakistan's prime minister, saying that while an MoU with the United States could be signed in the coming days, the exact timing remains uncertain. The spokesperson specifically flagged caution due to what he called instability in the other party's statements regarding the process. The comment adds a new layer of caution to a thread in which Iranian officials have offered conflicting signals on the status of the US-Iran talks mediated by Pakistan. As The Zioneer reported earlier Saturday, an earlier statement by the same spokesperson had said the signing date would not be tomorrow — a position reiterated in this latest remark. The Iranian side continues to emphasize internal decision-making procedures, while the Pakistani mediation effort has produced mixed assessments over the past week.
