Iraqi Talks Ease Tensions
Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi made an unannounced visit to Tehran less than 24 hours after a phone call with U.S. President Donald Trump. He met with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and parliament speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf to discuss de-escalation and the resumption of negotiations between Washington and Tehran. The talks covered Iraqi proposals to extend deadlines, build confidence and provide security guarantees, as well as Iran’s “two-day plan” and issues related to its nuclear program, shipping lanes and sanctions. Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein also discussed with his Iranian counterpart the formation of a regional ministerial committee to mediate. Disagreements over a ceasefire and the lifting of sanctions continue to hinder a settlement.
