[Iranian Official: Final Deadline Set for U.S. to Fulfill Memorandum of Understanding] According to CCTV News, a senior Iranian official stated that Iran has set a final deadline of several weeks for the U.S. to fully implement the Iran-U.S. Memorandum of Understanding, emphasizing that Iran will not wait indefinitely while the U.S. continues its maritime blockade. The official noted that, as efforts to reach a permanent ceasefire agreement with the U.S. have stalled, Iran has decided to shift its policy from defensive to fully offensive. If diplomatic efforts fail, Iran is prepared to escalate tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and the Middle East region. Iran's timeline will be conveyed to the U.S. through mediating countries. On August 17, the 60-day negotiation window set by the Iran-U.S. Memorandum of Understanding expired. Due to significant disagreements over issues such as the Strait of Hormuz, negotiations between the U.S. and Iran have reached an impasse, with no substantial progress made.
