Washington and Tehran conclude 60-day talks
The 60-day deadline for the American-Iranian memorandum of understanding has expired without reaching a final agreement, as disagreements persist on key issues including the Strait of Hormuz. Washington and Tehran continue to exchange messages through intermediaries in Pakistan and Qatar, but without any tangible progress. Iran emphasizes that negotiations with Oman regarding the Strait of Hormuz remain complex and require lengthy discussions. It insists that its policies are unaffected by pressure or final deadlines. Conversely, the U.S. President stresses the importance of ensuring that Iran does not acquire nuclear weapons and warns of military confrontation with Oman if Iran obstructs the passage through the strait. Reports anticipate that escalating tensions could lead to a prolonged confrontation between the two sides, with Iran leveraging the Strait of Hormuz to pressure energy markets and Washington imposing a naval blockade on Iran. Additionally, drone attacks have targeted the office of the Prime Minister of Iraqi Kurdistan from Iranian territory, marking a new escalation that threatens regional stability.
