Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei said the negotiating team does not plan to travel to Pakistan or Geneva in the next few days and that no peace deal is in sight just yet, according to Iranian channels. The remarks push back against speculation of a near-term breakthrough in US-Iran talks mediated by Pakistan.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei stated in the early hours of Thursday that the negotiating team has no plans to travel to Pakistan or Geneva in the coming days, and that a peace deal is not yet on the horizon. The statement follows weeks of mediated talks between the US and Iran, with Pakistan serving as an intermediary.
Earlier this week, Pakistan's foreign minister traveled to Geneva for mediation efforts, and Iran had previously indicated it was awaiting a final internal decision before signing any understanding. On June 12, an Iranian spokesman said the timing and place for signing remain uncertain. Baqaei's latest comments reinforce that a breakthrough should not be expected imminently.
As The Zioneer reported on June 13, the spokesman had already ruled out travel to Geneva in the next two days. The expanded denial — now including Pakistan — suggests the process remains stalled. No new proposals have been exchanged in recent days, according to an intelligence source close to the Iranian team quoted by Israeli media on June 9.
