According to Iranian media, Araghchi described the indirect talks as "good and forward-looking, lasting for four hours," emphasizing that "a better understanding was reached on a number of principles and goals."
The Iranian foreign minister said, "Assumptions and personal interpretations with different objectives are always present in any negotiation. I do not confirm any of these speculations. When the negotiations end, the results will be clear."
He added, "Negotiations are one of the Foreign Ministry's tasks, and there is no need to create excitement. We are proceeding carefully."
He stressed, "There is no reason for extreme optimism or extreme pessimism. I hope we will be in a better position next week after the technical meetings."
For his part, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei announced on the X platform that "fruitful indirect talks were held today between Iran and the United States, conducted by the Omani Foreign Minister, in a constructive atmosphere."
He added: The two sides agreed to continue indirect talks at the technical level within days, to be followed by another round at the level of each side next Saturday.
