Iran and the United States are still at odds in their attempts to revive the interim peace deal aimed at ending the Gulf war, according to a senior Iranian source. The senior source claims there has been no progress in the talks to revive the deal, which was agreed upon in June and outlined a timeframe for its implementation. This development comes as a setback to the hopes for resolving the crisis, following recent attacks on shipping in the region.
The interim deal declared an immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts; however, it quickly fell apart. U.S. President Donald Trump declared the deal over on July 7, while Iran's foreign ministry suspended it a week later. The U.S. accuses Iran of not adhering to the agreement's terms of reopening the crucial Strait of Hormuz shipping route.
Tehran asserts that Washington has breached its commitments, which include lifting a blockade on Iranian ports and releasing frozen Iranian assets. Discussions involving mediators are currently focusing on Iran returning to the interim agreement and determining a timeframe for implementing its clauses.
