Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said early Monday morning that 'major progress' has been made in talks with the United States to end the Lebanon war, as reported by the Times of Israel. The statement follows a series of recent Iranian claims of advancing negotiations. As The Zioneer reported on June 21, Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman stated that talks focused on ending the war, sanctions relief, and unfreezing frozen assets, without setting a signing date. On June 15, Iranian President Pezeshkian said progress was made but no final agreement had been reached. Araghchi's latest remark — 'major progress' — is the most optimistic phrasing yet from Tehran's senior diplomat, though no specifics were given and His remarks maintain Tehran's public posture of cautious optimism.
