Iran has not reached a final decision or agreement with the U.S. to end the ongoing war, according to Tehran.
The announcement comes amid intense international scrutiny over potential peace deals. Any resolution between the two nations would significantly alter the security landscape of the Middle East and potentially stabilize global energy markets.
Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said Thursday, June 11, 2026 [1], that a final conclusion has not been reached. The statement was delivered to the Islamic Republic News Agency and subsequently reported by international news agencies [1], [2].
"We have not yet made a final decision on a possible agreement with the United States," Baghaei said [1].
Baghaei said the text of the potential deal has not been finalized [3]. The Iranian government has indicated that it is maintaining specific negotiating "red lines" and will not compromise until those conditions are met [1], [2].
This lack of a finalized agreement persists despite ongoing discussions regarding the conflict. Iranian officials said Friday that no final conclusion had been reached to end the war with the U.S. [2].
The diplomatic stalemate continues as both sides navigate the requirements for a sustainable peace. Baghaei's comments underscore the gap between preliminary discussions and a signed treaty—a gap that remains wide as Tehran holds to its strategic requirements [1], [3].
“"We have not yet made a final decision on a possible agreement with the United States,"”
The refusal to sign a final agreement suggests that Tehran is leveraging its 'red lines' to secure specific concessions from the U.S. government. By publicly stating that the text is not finalized, Iran manages domestic and international expectations while signaling that it will not accept a deal that it perceives as a strategic compromise.
