Following intensive diplomatic consultations in Islamabad and significant progress in preliminary discussions, Iran and the United States have agreed to commence negotiations to finalize the critical issues between the two parties.<\/p>\n
Tehran – IranView24<\/strong><\/p>\n The transition to formal talks was made possible after two key Iranian preconditions were addressed: the American side\u2019s acceptance to release Iran\u2019s frozen assets and a noticeable reduction in the Zionist regime\u2019s strikes on Beirut, effectively shifting the focus to southern Lebanon. This de-escalation is viewed as a significant step toward the implementation of a broader ceasefire.<\/p>\n Technical and expert-level discussions are now required to finalize the complex legal, economic, and security matters between Tehran and Washington, making direct engagement a necessity at this stage.<\/p>\n Despite the start of talks, Iran maintains that the ceasefire in Lebanon has not yet been fully realized. The Iranian delegation has demanded that the U.S. fulfill its obligation to compel the Israeli regime to adhere strictly to the truce. This issue is being pursued vigorously through Pakistani mediators as well as within the negotiation chambers.<\/p>\n The Iranian team has reiterated its profound skepticism regarding Washington’s intentions, citing a long history of American bad faith and broken promises in previous diplomatic rounds. Tehran\u2019s presence in these Islamabad-hosted talks remains guarded and vigilant.<\/p>\n Earlier on Saturday, the heads of the Iranian and American delegations held separate meetings with the host and primary mediator, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. During these sessions, formal messages were exchanged, paving the way for the current phase.<\/p>\n Source: ISNA<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Following intensive diplomatic consultations in Islamabad and significant progress in preliminary discussions, Iran and the United States have agreed to commence negotiations to finalize the critical issues between the two parties.
