Overview

  • US President Donald Trump described recent nuclear talks with Iran as 'very, very good,' signaling potential progress toward an agreement.
  • The negotiations, mediated by Oman, aim to curb Iran's nuclear enrichment capabilities in exchange for easing US-imposed economic sanctions.
  • Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi called the latest round 'one of the most professional,' though emphasized that the issues remain complex.
  • The main sticking point remains Iran's uranium enrichment, with the US demanding a halt and Iran asserting its right to continue enrichment under strict inspections.
  • The talks are critical ahead of the June International Atomic Energy Agency meeting and the October expiry of the 2015 nuclear accord.
