A senior Iranian official has said that the probability of finalising a memorandum of understanding with the US in the coming days is high, while stressing that no foreign travel is planned in the immediate term.

Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei, speaking during a visit to Hamedan, said there are currently no plans for Iranian negotiators to travel to Geneva or elsewhere within the next day or two, despite media reports suggesting possible trips to conclude talks.

Commenting on remarks by Iran’s foreign minister that the two sides had “never been this close” to an understanding, Baghaei said the likelihood of reaching a deal in the coming days remained high.

However, he cautioned that the exact timing of any signing remains uncertain, adding that speculation about imminent travel should not be taken as confirmation of final arrangements.

Media reports had suggested that an Iranian delegation could travel to Geneva or Islamabad to finalise the “Islamabad memorandum of understanding,” but Baghaei denied any such immediate plans.
