TEHRAN - Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei on Wednesday called on the US government to refrain from making interpretations that are "completely in contradiction" with the recently signed Iran-US peace memorandum of understanding (MoU).

He made the remarks in a post on the social media platform X, slamming "contradictory" statements made by US officials regarding the MoU's provisions.

He said the remarks on ending the war will not help reduce Iranians' "accumulated distrust" and will merely serve as a reminder of past breaches of promises.

Baghaei emphasized that the US government has never shown any sincerity in its conduct toward the Iranian nation, adding that, despite having reason to distrust it, Iran entered the diplomatic process with the United States in good faith and signed the MoU.

Iranians know that the "enemy's" animosity will not end by signing an MoU, bearing in mind the experiences of the past five decades, especially the developments of the preceding 18 months, he said.
