The informed source told Tasnim that Iran has absolutely no optimism regarding the United States, and that the exchange of messages through the Pakistani mediator is constantly carried out while taking into account pessimism toward the US government.

The source noted that no final understanding has been reached so far and that challenges over certain clauses continue. However, even if an initial understanding is reached, it does not mean a change in Iran’s view of the US or confidence in this government’s implementation of its commitments, he added.

The informed source stressed that the Americans have a very bad record in negotiations, which reinforces and solidifies the pessimism.

Therefore, the source said, even if an understanding is reached, Iran will monitor US actions throughout the process following the announcement of the understanding, and if the US breaches its commitments at that stage, Iran will preserve its leverages to confront it.
