Overview

  • High-level talks between U.S. and Iranian officials are set to begin in Oman, with Steve Witkoff and Abbas Araghchi representing their respective nations.
  • President Trump has warned that military action against Iran remains a viable option if a nuclear agreement is not reached.
  • Iran has expressed willingness to negotiate but firmly opposes discussions conducted under threats or coercion from the U.S.
  • Iranian officials have raised the possibility of expelling IAEA inspectors, a move Washington views as an escalation and a strategic misstep.
  • The negotiations aim to replace the defunct 2015 nuclear deal, with tensions heightened by new U.S. sanctions and Israel's potential involvement in any military response.
