Iran has agreed to give nuclear talks with the United States a “genuine chance” despite threats from U.S. President Trump. Set to begin in Oman, the indirect talks aim for a fair agreement on Iran’s nuclear program, with hopes for sincere negotiations free from intimidation.
The talks come after Trump’s threat of bombing if an agreement is not reached. Despite this, Iranian officials have insisted on the importance of sincere negotiations without threats. Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister, Majid Takht-e Ravanchi, stated that a fair deal was possible without intimidation.
This new round of talks is part of the wider geopolitical tensions, with Israel’s military actions in the region adding pressure. Iran’s nuclear programme, which it claims is for peaceful purposes, has raised concerns in the West, particularly with Tehran’s growing stockpile of enriched uranium.
The talks are expected to be indirect, with Oman acting as a mediator, despite Trump’s earlier indication of direct negotiations. If both sides come with genuine intentions, Iran believes the path to a deal could be clear.
