FO Spokesperson Tahir Andrabi, responding to queries, urged the media to refrain from speculation about the US-Iran talks, particularly any venue or date for any possible dialogue.

“This is not an event,” he remarked, stressing the need to distinguish between a “process and an event”.

“Developments in the process will be announced as and when they have, so please do not focus yourself on any specific event, whether the 15 points have come, whether the five points have been shared, whether side A has accepted, or whether side B has rejected.

“… When the process will have some concrete information, we will share with you,” Andrabi added.
