U.S. Says ‘Slight Progress’ in Iran Talks Amid Uncertainty About Whether War Will Resume
- Secretary of State Marco Rubio reported "some progress" in ongoing negotiations with Iran on Friday, cautioning that "the latest signs are encouraging, but I'm not popping champagne yet."
- Strained relations stem from Iran's attempt to impose a "tolling system" on the Strait of Hormuz, which transports nearly a fifth of global oil exports and which the U.S. and European Union reject as illegal.
- Pakistan's Army Chief Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir is heading to Tehran for consultations, serving as a major intermediary between Washington and Tehran to keep diplomatic channels open.
- President Donald Trump has repeatedly warned that Tehran could face "another big hit" if negotiations fail, while the European Union broadened sanctions targeting those responsible for the Strait blockade.
- Washington remains focused on ensuring Iran never acquires a nuclear weapon and that the Straits remain open without tolls, with Rubio indicating the administration is preparing a "Plan B" should diplomacy collapse.
