Iran: Iran and the US are not engaged in talks and Tehran will not start them as long as Washington breaches an interim deal signed in June, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says. However, he adds that messages are being exchanged via intermediaries. Araghchi repeats Iran’s position that an agreement on the Strait of Hormuz between Iran and Oman is in the “final stages” but would not involve reopening the strategic waterway. In comments reported by Mehr news agency, he says the agreement would set out the new shipping lanes to be used once the US fulfills other conditions allowing the strait to reopen to traffic.
