Sources clarified that the Pakistani mediator managed to overcome the impasse of the Iranian nuclear file in the difficult negotiations between Tehran and Washington, and that "the issues that have not yet been resolved between the United States and Iran are stopping the war in Lebanon, ending the American blockade on Iranian ports, and withdrawing military forces from the region, which Iran conditions for opening the Strait of Hormuz and going to a round of negotiations under a 30-day ceiling," according to Sky News Arabia.

Tehran is also demanding a higher percentage of the lifting of the financial asset freeze than the 25% currently offered.

The sources added that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard is "hardline" in its positions regarding reaching an agreement on these issues.

She considered that "there is a severe disagreement between the government and the Revolutionary Guard regarding Iran's demands, as the latter is hardline and does not accept any compromise on these demands, while the government, led by President Masoud Bezhakian, tends to accept the offer presented to Iran by the mediators."
