Iran’s Foreign Ministry has reiterated its stance that progress in negotiations is contingent upon reciprocal action from other parties. Specifically, the spokesman stated that implementation of the memorandum of understanding signed in Islamabad will proceed on a “commitment for commitment” basis. This principle signifies Iran expects a fulfillment of obligations from other signatories before fully implementing its own commitments. The statement underscores Iran’s insistence on a balanced approach to negotiations, emphasizing the importance of verifiable actions. This position appears to relate to previous agreements and outstanding issues regarding their implementation. The spokesman did not specify which agreements or parties were referenced beyond the Islamabad memorandum. This approach signals a firm negotiating position from Tehran.
