In a lively four‐hour session in Rome, Iran's Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi hailed the indirect talks with the U.S. delegation as "constructive" and full of forward-moving progress. Mediated by Oman, the meeting paves the way for renewed dialogue on Iran's nuclear program and the removal of Washington's sanctions.
At the close of the second round of discussions, Araghchi noted that both sides reached a better understanding of key principles and objectives. Technical negotiations at the expert level are set to kick off in Oman by Wednesday, with another round scheduled for the following Saturday to review expert findings.
A U.S. official confirmed that both delegations are ready to move into the next phase, continuing the momentum built during this session. Despite previous tensions and pointed remarks from President Trump's administration, the constructive atmosphere in Rome signals a mutual willingness to work toward a fair, lasting agreement.
This development comes as efforts to revive the landmark nuclear deal—originally signed in 2015 with major players including the U.S., the UK, China, France, Germany, and Russia—gather renewed interest. Although the U.S. withdrew from that agreement in May 2018, these fresh negotiations offer hope for balanced and meaningful progress.
For followers of international diplomacy, this news is a reminder that even the most complex challenges can see breakthroughs when dialogue remains open and constructive. Stay tuned as experts and negotiators work toward a resolution! 🚀
