The spokesman of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Esmail Baghei, said today that signing of the Memorandum of an understanding with the United States "will not happen tomorrow", despite suggestions from Pakistan's key mediator that it should happen.
"The possibility of this happening in the coming days is not excluded, but due to the instability of the other side, we must be careful with any statements regarding this process," Baghei said, according to Iran's Tasnim news agency.
He noted that it is not a final agreement between Iran and the United States, but a memorandum that outlines the main points of disagreement and makes it clear that the war will end.
The statement by Baghei, who was a member and spokesman for Iran's negotiating team, came after Pakistani Prime Minister Shebaz Sharif said earlier today that potential terms were expected to be finalized in the "next 24 hours".
His announcement was then conveyed by US President Donald Trump.
Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs also said that the electronic signing ceremony of the memorandum "is scheduled for tomorrow".
