United States and Iran
Indirect negotiations between the United States and Iran have begun in Oman amid rising tensions and fears of a possible military confrontation. The primary focus of these talks is Iran’s nuclear program and potential easing of international sanctions imposed on the country.
According to sources, the Iranian delegation has arrived in Muscat, the capital of Oman, where it held meetings with Omani officials. The US delegation is also participating in the negotiations indirectly, with Oman acting as a mediator between the two sides.
In the initial phase, both parties conveyed their positions and proposals to each other through Omani authorities. During the discussions, indications have emerged that some of the existing differences between the two countries are narrowing, and talks are underway on establishing a preliminary framework.
Political analysts say Iran is currently under severe economic pressure, with rising inflation and public protests increasing pressure on the government to provide economic relief. This is why Iran is approaching the negotiations seriously; however, Iranian officials reject the notion that they have come to the negotiating table out of weakness.
On the other hand, the United States is seeking a diplomatic approach to reduce regional tensions and place limits on nuclear activities. The international community, particularly Russia and European countries, has also termed these talks a positive development and emphasized restraint and diplomacy.
It remains unclear whether these indirect talks will eventually lead to direct negotiations. However, the current engagement is being seen as a foundation for possible diplomatic progress between the two countries.
