Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi responded to growing media speculation over a possible Iran-US agreement, emphasizing that while diplomacy remains Tehran’s preferred path, any deal must fully meet Iran’s conditions, chief among them the complete removal of sanctions and recognition of its nuclear rights.

“Media is speculating about an imminent Iran-US deal. Not sure if we are there yet,” Araghchi posted on X on Wednesday.

He affirmed Iran’s sincere commitment to a diplomatic solution that serves the interests of all parties involved. However, he warned that a resolution requires “an agreement that will fully terminate all sanctions and uphold Iran's nuclear rights—including enrichment.”

This comes after CNN reported that talks between Washington and Tehran are close to reaching a comprehensive agreement that could be concluded during the next meeting, citing informed sources.

CNN indicated that the next round of negotiations between Iran and the United States is likely to be held in the Middle East.

Diplomacy must prevail, not media hype

Araghchi reiterated that the road to any potential deal must go through formal talks rather than media narratives.

“Path to a deal goes through the negotiating table and not the media,” he stated, in a clear rebuke to unverified reports suggesting progress toward a new arrangement between Tehran and Washington.

Araghchi slams 'Israel' over disinformation

Addressing what he described as recent “fake news” targeting Iran-US diplomacy, Araghchi accused "Israel" of using Tehran as a tool to discredit American voices critical of US foreign policy.

“Using Iran to attack American critics is low, even for Israel,” he remarked, underscoring Tehran’s growing frustration with what it perceives as deliberate disinformation campaigns aimed at derailing diplomatic efforts.

The comments come amid renewed international focus on Iran’s nuclear program and mounting regional tensions, particularly as diplomatic channels remain strained.
