An agreement with the United States (US) to end the conflict in Iran is close and includes the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said.

He told Iranian television that the agreement also includes the lifting of the US blockade of Iran, but that talks on Iran's nuclear program would begin later.

The BBC reports that US officials have confirmed some of the details of the agreement.

According to them, economic benefits for Iran will depend on whether Tehran fulfills its obligations.

Aragchi said there are "both supporters and opponents" of the latest terms of the agreement among Supreme National Security Council officials.

"We have to wait. If approved, the agreement will be signed remotely," he added.
