Iran and the US held indirect nuclear talks in Oman, making progress but disagreeing on key issues.

Iran and the US held the fourth round of indirect nuclear talks in Oman, aimed at reviving the 2015 nuclear deal. Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi reported that discussions have become more serious and frank, but Iran rejected US demands to dismantle its nuclear infrastructure, insisting on its right to enrich uranium for peaceful purposes. Both sides expressed a commitment to continue negotiations, with Oman acting as mediator. The talks follow the US's withdrawal from the deal in 2018, leading to increased tensions and Iran's reduced compliance with its nuclear commitments.
