US and Iran to Continue Nuclear Talks Amid Rising Tensions
Iran has expressed its commitment to ongoing nuclear discussions with the U.S., following what officials termed a ‘good start’ in talks held in Oman. Both nations acknowledge the need to address nuclear enrichment issues, although Iran has ruled out any immediate cessation. Indirect negotiations were characterized as useful, setting the stage for further dialogue despite the backdrop of increasing military tensions in the Middle East. Key diplomatic figures from both sides are expected to continue the talks, with Iran emphasizing that discussions will remain focused primarily on nuclear matters and will not expand to include ballistic capabilities or regional proxies. While the U.S. has signaled a willingness to drop certain demands, the path forward remains uncertain as both nations navigate complex geopolitical dynamics.
