Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has accused Israel of obstructing efforts to reach a long-term ceasefire agreement with the United States.

Operativ Media reports, citing the IRNA news agency.

Stating that Israel is actively hindering the diplomatic process, Araghchi described the country as the primary obstacle to a potential deal.

“Israel was and remains the biggest opponent and obstacle to implementing the memorandum of understanding. They did everything possible to ensure that such an agreement would not be reached, would fail, and would not be implemented,” he noted.
