Iran’s foreign minister has discussed the memorandum of understanding and its implementation during a phone call with his French counterpart, according to Iranian state media.

Abbas Araghchi and Jean-Noel Barrot “reviewed and exchanged views on the latest regional and international developments” regarding the US-Iran MoU, with “the aim of ending the war imposed by” the US and Israel against Iran, according to the IRIB broadcaster.

The report comes after Iran’s deputy foreign minister criticised comments by French President Emmanuel Macron, who said Paris was working with Oman on demining the Strait of Hormuz.
