The fifth round of Iran-US indirect talks concluded Friday in Rome, with Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi calling it “one of the most professional rounds”, Xinhua reported.
He stated that the United States now has a greater understanding of Iran's stance, and that both sides will study new offers before the next session, which may involve more comprehensive conversations.
Iranian and Omani officials described the atmosphere as calm and constructive, with some progress made but no final agreement. Talks, mediated by Oman since April, focus on Iran’s nuclear program and US sanctions. Iran continues to reject US demands to halt uranium enrichment, according to Xinhua.
