Fourth Round of Iran-US Nuclear Talks Ends

The fourth round of nuclear talks between Iran and the United States has concluded in Oman, with both delegations describing the discussions as positive but acknowledging persistent disagreements over Iran's uranium enrichment program. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi stated that Iran's right to enrich uranium remains non-negotiable and rejected US demands for a complete dismantlement of enrichment facilities. The US delegation, led by envoy Steve Witkoff, continues to insist on dismantling Iran’s enrichment capabilities, with President Trump threatening military action if no new agreement is reached. Iran claims its nuclear program is strictly peaceful and expresses openness to trust-building measures, while Western nations remain wary due to the program's acceleration since the US exited the 2015 deal. Both sides have indicated a willingness to continue negotiations, though the fundamental dispute over Iran's nuclear rights remains unresolved.
