IRAN-U.S. NUCLEAR TALKS 2025

The fifth round of Iran-U.S. negotiations wrapped up today in Rome, showing some progress but without a definitive resolution.

Why it matters:

Ahead of this round, Tehran and Washington hardened their stances—Iran reaffirmed its commitment to retaining its legitimate enrichment rights.

 

What he's saying:

Omani Foreign Minister on X: "We hope to clarify the remaining issues in the coming days, to allow us to proceed towards the common goal of reaching a sustainable and honourable agreement."

 

Context:

Washington's representative left the talks. Witkoff's departure was due to a pre-scheduled flight. However, negotiations went on between technical delegations from both sides, with Omani Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr al-Busaidi facilitating the discussions.
