TEHRAN -- Negotiations between delegations from Iran and the United States will be extended for another day at Pakistan's proposal and at the two sides' consent, the semi-official Tasnim news agency reported early Sunday.

The report said given the "illogical and excessive demands" of the United States and the Iranian delegation's insistence on ensuring national interests, Pakistan proposed to hold another round of negotiations on Sunday and the two sides agreed.

This occurred at the end of the latest round of Pakistani-mediated talks that ended early Sunday in Islamabad, and after the two delegations exchanged texts, according to Tasnim.
