According to IRNA, Foreign Ministry spokesperson and negotiation team member Esmaeil Baghaei said Qatar and Pakistan, acting as mediators, will issue a document outlining the broad understandings reached during approximately 18 hours of discussions. The text will serve as the official record of the agreements achieved during the talks.

Baghaei said the discussions went beyond the planned joint statement and included key issues such as the issuance of licenses for the export of Iranian oil and petrochemical products, as well as the release of blocked Iranian assets. He described both issues as essential prerequisites for moving toward negotiations on a final agreement.

“Practical steps must be taken on both the release of assets and oil sales,” he said.

He added that, under the memorandum of understanding, a mechanism will be established to monitor compliance by all parties. Technical teams from both sides, with the participation of mediators, are scheduled to begin meetings on Monday to discuss implementation details and form specialized working groups.

Baghaei said Iran’s primary objective in attending the Switzerland talks was to secure the implementation of commitments made by the other side. He noted that Iranian officials repeatedly raised concerns about what they described as failures to fulfill previous obligations.

The negotiations began Sunday morning with bilateral meetings between Iranian officials and the mediators, followed by a four-party session involving representatives from Iran, the United States, Qatar and Pakistan.

According to Baghaei, the four-party meeting lasted about 90 minutes before a planned break. During the pause, he said, “offensive and threatening” remarks attributed to the US president were published in the media, prompting Iran’s delegation to suspend direct participation in the talks.

He said Qatar and Pakistan worked extensively to keep the negotiations on track. Iran agreed to continue discussions indirectly through the mediators and message exchanges rather than direct engagement.

Baghaei said Iran also raised objections over alleged violations of commitments and cease-fire arrangements, including continued breaches by Israel of understandings reached on June 18.

Among the outcomes of the discussions, he highlighted the creation of a new monitoring mechanism, referred to as a “deconfliction cell,” designed to oversee the continuation of the halt in hostilities and military operations. The mechanism, established with mediator participation, is intended to help ensure the durability of the ceasefire framework.

He also cited progress on provisions related to oil sales authorizations and the release of frozen Iranian assets, calling developments on both issues “very positive.”

In addition, Baghaei said the parties agreed to develop a mechanism to facilitate the safe passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz, describing it as an important step toward regional stability.

He said the agreements reached provide important groundwork for launching negotiations on a final settlement and expressed hope that all parties would demonstrate seriousness in implementing their commitments.

Technical working groups will continue discussions on these issues and other measures required for the effective implementation of the memorandum of understanding, he added.
