Meanwhile, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Iran, Abbas Aragchi, posted on social media in which he assured that a tentative agreement between Iran and the US has never been so close. “As soon as the final stages of our negotiations are completed, this agreement will be signed and announced,” Iran's foreign minister later told local media.
