Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi has announced that a memorandum of understanding between Iran and the US has been finalised and will be officially signed this Friday in Geneva.
The formal signing ceremony for the memorandum of understanding will take place in Geneva, Switzerland, according to remarks carried by Iran's semi-official Mehr News Agency.
Tehran completed intensive diplomatic efforts to secure the final draft amid heightened regional tensions.
Gharibabadi also said the end of the US naval blockade against Iran would begin Sunday night, US time.
Diplomacy backed by victories
Gharibabadi described the memorandum as the result not only of diplomacy but also of Iran's military achievements during the conflict.
"The enemy that launched the attack failed in all of its malicious objectives, and the Islamic Republic achieved major victories in the war," he said.
He added that Iran had included all of its key positions in the draft memorandum and said the full text would be published after the official signing.
"We have held long talks with Pakistan and Qatar regarding the memorandum of understanding over the past few days," the deputy foreign minister added.
The final breakthrough followed a series of exhaustive, direct diplomatic meetings held in the Iranian capital to address outstanding elements of the text.
"Today, we spent long hours with the Qatari delegation in Tehran to discuss the memorandum of understanding and our observations on it," the minister said, highlighting the dense mediation process.
Strict monitoring protocols set
Iranian officials intend to maintain full transparency regarding the inner mechanics of the peace agreement once the official diplomatic signatures are secured in Switzerland.
"We will publish the terms of the memorandum of understanding with America after its official signing," the official confirmed.
However, Tehran emphasised that the implementation phase will be accompanied by rigorous oversight to ensure Washington adheres to all stipulated terms of the accord.
"We have special programmes to monitor America’s implementation of its commitments in the memorandum of understanding," the deputy foreign minister warned.
