Washington, United States – A US official confirmed that technical talks between the United States and Iran, dedicated to discussing the implementation mechanisms of the memorandum of understanding, are still scheduled for the coming days despite reports of a potential delay. The official indicated that both sides are continuing preparations to hold the technical meetings, which aim to address the executive aspects of the memorandum and establish practical mechanisms to implement what has been agreed upon.
The Role of Talks in the Path of Understandings

These meetings are vital for translating political consensus into practical steps on the ground between the two parties.
De-confliction Channels for Communication
The official explained that Washington and Tehran continue to exchange messages through what are known as de-confliction channels, a communication mechanism used to maintain contact between the two parties and reduce the likelihood of misunderstandings or escalation.

Anticipation of Future Outcomes
These statements come at a time when the international community is anticipating the next steps in the trajectory of US-Iranian relations, especially as the memorandum of understanding enters the phase of practical implementation. Observers believe that the success of the technical talks may pave the way for further progress in implementing mutual obligations, while the results of the upcoming meetings will remain an important indicator of the future of the understanding and the potential to maintain stability and avoid escalation.
