US EditionUS, Iran leave door open to dialogue after tense Islamabad talks
The talks lasted more than 20 hours, and officials said the two sides were close to a framework agreement before disputes over nuclear limits and sanctions stalled it.
- On Sunday, United States and Iran officials concluded their highest-level talks in decades at Islamabad's Serena Hotel without a formal agreement, though sources confirmed the diplomatic channel remains open.
- This weekend meeting, the first direct encounter since Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution, aimed to chart a long-term settlement following a Pakistan-brokered ceasefire that paused six weeks of war.
- Negotiators endured a tense, 20-hour session with 11 sources indicating parties were '80% there' before stalling over nuclear enrichment, Hormuz Strait control, and frozen assets.
- President Donald Trump said on Monday that Iran 'called this morning' and that 'they'd like to work a deal,' while Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif pledged a 'full effort' to resolve issues.
- While dialogue persists, core disputes over Iran's nuclear programme and regional security remain unresolved, leaving global energy markets and shipping sectors facing ongoing sanctions uncertainty and maritime disruptions.
