According to reports, US officials have scheduled a third round of conversations with Iranian representatives in Oman, after what US and Iranian sources described as a successful second round of nuclear negotiations in Rome on Saturday.
Most of the news about the conversations of Rome have fed on the varied media of unidentified American and Iranian officials, all of which were optimistic about the results of the negotiations that Began With “indirect” conversations in Oman on April 12.
American officials saying The conversations advanced to a more “direct” status on Saturday, when the envoy of President Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff, with face to face with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Washington and Tehran continue to disagree with how “direct conversations” should be defined.
ARRAGHCHI saying On Saturday, a “relatively positive atmosphere in Rome” has “allowed progress in the principles and objectives of a possible agreement.”
“We make clear how many in Iran believe that JCPOA is no longer good enough for us. For them, what remains in that agreement are” lessons learned. “Personally, I tend to agree,” said Iranian Foreign Minister.
JCPOA means a joint comprehensive action plan, the formal name of President Barack Obama’s nuclear agreement with Iran in 2015. President Trump withdraw As of the duration of the agreement, its first mandate in 2018, calling it “defective in its nucleus.”
The Iranians also frequently complained about JCPOA, claiming that he did not deliver the economic benefits that Obama promised when they lasted sanctions. The Iranians continued enriching uranium and repeatedly broken Its obligations to allow inspections of the International Atomic Energy Agency (OIEA) of its nuclear sites.
“The beginning of the expert level track will begin in the next few days in order to mark the details. After that, we will be in a better position to judge,” Araghchi said on Saturday.
Araghchi was enthusiastic enough about the progress of nuclear conversations to spend a little time on Tuesday aggressor Iranian uncompromising and “aggressive elements affiliated with Israel” for trying to derail the discussions.
A spokesman for the Iranian Foreign Ministry saying Araghchi will visit Beijing on Tuesday for letter to the Chinese government about the progress of nuclear conversations with the United States, so he had consulted with Russia before the second round of conversations in Rome.
He Jerusalem post Tuesday aforementioned The media of the Middle East reported that he described Iran as “surprised by the behavior of the negotiator and the serious and the urgency that he has demonstrated, as well as the fact that he has not yet submitted nuclear demands.”
According to these reports, the Iranians believe that conversations are progressing “beyond expectations.”
A senior Trump administration official said Fox News on Monday that “we advance very well in our direct and indirect discussions” in Rome on Saturday.
“We agree to meet again next week and we thank our IRI partners for facilitating the thesis and our Italian partners for organizing today,” said the unidentified American official.
The sudden eagerness of Iran to continue talking does not have leg tasks as a positive sign by critics who fear that the care of the results will be little more than revive the JCPOA, or possible, even a modified agreement that is equally advantageous for Iran. That result would be clearly a political disaster for the Trump administration, which would be excorited to buy again in the agreement that Trump denounced so vociferantly in his first mandate.
“The speed with which the technical conversations have been agreed is worrying for those who expect to avoid a repetition of 2013 and 2015, as well as the accusations of the sacrifice of Iran of an interim homenated proposal of three steps for an agreement”, Fdellemiowsiodsiodiodijsiody Foudow.
“It would be the height of strategic negligence and a policy itself to allow the Islamic Republic to oblige the United States under the Trump administration in an agreement that only slightly modified the agreement that Trump criticized and left correctly.”
“Iran in 2025 was not the Iran in 2015 when that first nuclear agreement was made,” added the retired general Jack Keane, a senior strategic analyst at Fox News.
Keane said Iran now has “the ability to manufacture advanced centrifugers that can enrich uranium from zero to the degree of weapons in a week”, as well as “ballistic missiles that can deliver the weapon.”
He Jerusalem post I’m listening The sound of a clock that works while President Trump prepares to visit Saudi Arabia “in a matter of week,” may activate “some additional seismic changes in the region.”
According to reports, Israeli officials are not happy with the rapid progress of conversations, after trying to convince Witkoff to reduce things and make firmer demands about Iran to reverse their uranium enrichment program. According to reports, Israelis also because Iran will move away from the development of their ballistic missiles, thinning their missile arsenal that could administer nuclear eyelets at long distances.
