A US official confirmed that an agreement has been reached between Iran and the United States concerning the transfer of the final bilateral maritime arbitration cases within the Persian Gulf. This development follows discussions mediated under an understanding memorandum signed by both nations. The agreement reportedly addresses the outstanding maritime disputes, thereby shifting focus away from the possibility of an immediate, comprehensive peace treaty covering all outstanding arbitration matters.
Sources indicated that the commitment to resolving these specific cases was successfully negotiated. Further discussions are scheduled to continue in Doha, Qatar, according to reports from the US news portal Axios, citing an unnamed high-ranking US official. These ongoing talks are intended to build upon the framework established by the understanding memorandum.
As of the latest reports, Iran has not yet issued a definitive commitment regarding the terms or outcomes of the ongoing negotiations. The focus remains on the structured continuation of dialogue between representatives from Washington and Tehran. The successful conclusion of this phase is expected to pave the way for addressing broader bilateral issues between the two countries.
The resolution of these last arbitration cases is a key element in the diplomatic efforts between Iran and the US, with the reached understanding marking a significant, albeit preliminary, step forward.
