Iran and the United States engaged in talks in Oman regarding Tehran’s nuclear program, marking direct interactions between the nations after decades of tension. The negotiations lasted over two hours and were described as “indirect” by Iranian officials. The talks focused on the nuclear issue and sanctions relief, with the U.S. offering to dismantle Iran’s program. Iran’s current uranium stockpile could potentially lead to the development of nuclear weapons. Iranian officials emphasized the importance of safeguarding national interests and securing sanctions relief. Iran is likely to request to continue enriching uranium up to at least 20%, but is not willing to give up its nuclear program entirely. The possibility of a “Libyan solution,” as suggested by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, is considered unworkable by Iranian leadership, who reference the fate of Moammar Gadhafi as a cautionary tale. The talks are ongoing, with the next round scheduled for the following week. The outcome of the negotiations could have significant implications for both nations, as tensions continue to escalate over Iran’s nuclear program.
