President Donald Trump announced "major combat operations" against Iran on Feb. 28, with massive joint U.S.-Israeli strikes targeting military, government and infrastructure sites.

Following the announcement of a two-week ceasefire, initial U.S.-Iran talks in Pakistan in April failed to reach a peace deal.

Trump later announced the open-ended extension of the ceasefire and the continuation of a U.S. blockade until negotiations are concluded "one way or the other."

Iranian official says 'we'll wait and see' on signing

Ismail Baghaei, the spokesman for Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said the focus now is on ending the war on all fronts including Lebanon, and the two sides decided not to discuss the nuclear issue.

"This is not a final agreement between Iran and the United States, but rather an understanding that outlines the general outlines of the disputed issues and specifies that the war will end," Baghaei said at a press conference Saturday.

"The nuclear issue is also scheduled to be discussed within a 60-day period, so there will be no discussion about its details at this stage," Baghaei said.
