Messages between Iran and U.S. stopped several days ago, Iranian news agency says
The exchange of messages between Iran and the United States via mediators stopped several days ago, Iran’s semi-official Fars News agency said Tuesday, contradicting President Trump’s assertion on Monday that talks with Iran were progressing “at a rapid pace.”
Fars quoted an unnamed “informed source” as saying the last message sent by Tehran to Washington conveyed a clear stance regarding Iran’s demand for an end to Israel’s parallel war with Hezbollah in Lebanon as part of any agreement between Washington and Iran’s leadership.
“The exchange of messages between Iran and the U.S. has been suspended for at least a few days for what is called the initial memorandum of understanding” between the countries, Fars said.
