US, Iran Agree to More Nuclear Talks After ‘Useful’ Round

The US and Iran will continue talks over the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program, after discussions on Sunday that were described as encouraging by Washington and “difficult but useful” by Tehran.

“Despite the challenges, very useful discussions were held,” Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said in televised statements following the talks. He said that Tehran and Washington had reached a “deeper understanding” and “narrowed their positions,” adding that their next meeting will likely take place in a week.
