Iran and the U.S. have held high-level talks in Oman over Tehran’s nuclear program, with more discussions planned.
Iran and the United States have completed a first round of talks in Oman over Tehran's nuclear program, marking the highest-level meeting between the two countries since 2018.
Both sides described the meeting as "constructive" and confirmed that a second round of discussions is scheduled for next week, with the U.S. highlighting the importance of "direct communication" in reaching a potential agreement.
The largely indirect talks took place in Oman and involved the Trump administration’s Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff, and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
Lasting two and a half hours, the meeting was reportedly respectful and laid the groundwork for further negotiations.
The talks are viewed as a crucial first step in exploring the possibility of a deal, representing the most significant engagement since Trump withdrew the U.S. from the 2015 Iran nuclear agreement during his first term.
