US and Iran talks at risk of collapse after US rejects move to Oman
Iran says ‘good progress’ made in nuclear talks with US in Geneva
AI Summary
Scheduled US-Iran talks are at risk of collapsing after the US rejected Iran's request to move the location from Turkey to Oman and exclude the presence of other Arab states. Iran insists the talks focus solely on its nuclear program, excluding discussions on its ballistic missile program and other issues the US wants to address. The US Secretary of State stated that any meaningful talks must include discussions on Iran's ballistic missiles, support for terrorist organizations, nuclear program, and treatment of its people. A US envoy will now travel to Doha and return to Washington without meeting Iranian officials. The dispute raises uncertainty about whether the talks can proceed as planned.
