ABC News reported that Iran remains open to talks with the United States under an interim deal brokered by Pakistan, according to Tehran's ambassador to Islamabad. The report said Iran is "open to U.S. talks" under that arrangement.

According to the ABC News summary, the interim deal was reached in June to end the conflict. The summary does not identify the parties to that conflict, describe the terms of the deal, or say when any talks might take place.

The summary identifies the source only as Tehran's ambassador to Islamabad and does not give a name. The ABC News headline also names Pakistan as the broker of the agreement.

The summary describes Iran's position as continuing rather than newly announced, but it does not detail any earlier stance. It also does not report any response from the United States government to the ambassador's remarks.

ABC News's summary says the deal is interim and was reached to end the conflict, but it does not say whether the conflict has ended. Readers should not take the interim arrangement to mean a final settlement, since the summary does not describe one.

Because this account relies on the ABC News headline and summary, it reflects only what that item states about Iran's position. The full text of the report was not available for this account.

The ABC News item did not list an author. Its summary attributes all statements of Iran's position to the ambassador, and no other official is named in the material reviewed.
