The ministry stated, "At present, the United States and Iran, alongside the mediators Pakistan and Qatar, are still scheduled to meet tomorrow in Bürgenstock to launch the first negotiations regarding the implementation of the agreement."
This comes a day after US President Donald Trump and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian remotely signed a memorandum of understanding to end the war in the Middle East, which began with a US-Israeli attack on Iran on February 28.
Trump signed the memorandum of understanding, which encompasses the Lebanese front, during a visit to France.
Under the memorandum, Tehran and Washington pledged to conduct negotiations and reach a final agreement within a maximum period of 60 days, renewable upon the agreement of both parties.
According to the text of the understanding, Tehran renewed its commitment not to seek to possess or develop nuclear weapons, provided that both parties discuss Iran's nuclear file within the framework of the negotiations for the final agreement.
