  • Iran stated that it is not engaged in any negotiations with the United States for an extension of any ceasefire.

Iran has asserted that no discussions are underway with the United States concerning the extension of any ceasefire agreement. A high-ranking Iranian official, speaking to Reuters, clarified that any such agreement lacked an official commencement date, thereby precluding any possibility of an extension.

These statements were issued in direct response to a recent publication that suggested ongoing negotiations between the two nations on this matter. The Iranian source emphasized that the absence of a formal start date for any prior understanding meant there was no basis upon which to discuss an extension.

The clarification from Tehran aims to counter what it perceives as misrepresentations regarding its diplomatic engagements with the U.S. The focus remains on the specific terms and conditions of any potential agreements, with Iran highlighting the procedural prerequisites for discussing extensions.
