Iran's semi-official Tasnim News Agency reported on the 24th that regarding a potential agreement between Iran and the United States, the two sides remain divided on "one or two" clauses. The BBC, citing Tasnim, reported that these points have not been finalized due to "US obstruction." Iran has already communicated its position to the mediator, Pakistan, stating that if the "US side continues to obstruct," an agreement will not be reached. Fars News Agency, which is linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), reported that these sticking points concern the freezing of Iranian assets and sanctions on oil and related commodities. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated earlier at a press conference in New Delhi that the US-Iran agreement has made "significant" progress but is "not yet finalized," suggesting that US President Donald Trump might make an announcement later today.
