An Iranian official told CNN that the talks in Switzerland are not being treated as part of the negotiations because some of the conditions in the memorandum of understanding were not met. The official said the main issue is the first clause, which calls for ending the war on all fronts, including in Lebanon.
According to the source, ending the conflict there is the top priority on the agenda of the Iranian delegation. The remarks suggest Tehran is linking the standing of the Swiss discussions to prior commitments it says have not yet been fulfilled.
No further details were provided about which specific conditions were left unmet or who else is participating in the talks.
