No final Iran-US understanding reached yet - Tasnim

No final understanding has been reached between Iran and the United States, IRGC-affiliated Tasnim News reported, rejecting Trump’s remarks on lifting the naval blockade as unilateral and insisting Iran’s frozen assets must be addressed before any preliminary deal.

Tasnim said Trump’s comments should be viewed with skepticism, arguing that even if the naval blockade is lifted in practice, it would only amount to ending one violation of the ceasefire because the blockade should not have been imposed in the first place.

The outlet also dismissed claims by Trump and US media about the nuclear file as baseless, saying the current discussions do not involve details of the nuclear issue.

Tasnim said Trump’s insistence that Iran’s frozen funds will not be released only deepens Tehran’s doubts about Washington’s seriousness.

The Islamic Republic has repeatedly said the status of its frozen assets must be determined before any initial understanding is reached, the report added.
