US and Iran Make Progress in Nuclear Talks Amid Military Tensions
Iran and the US agreed on guiding principles to draft a nuclear deal aiming to lift sanctions and reduce Middle East conflict risks, with a new proposal due in two weeks.
- On Tuesday in Geneva, Abbas Araghchi met Steve Witkoff and Tehran says it reached a `general agreement` on guiding principles to draft a potential deal, with a new proposal due in two weeks.
- Driven by the aim to lift sanctions, negotiators began talks because US airstrikes last June hit key nuclear sites, while growing Persian Gulf deployments and threats increased pressure on Iran's nuclear programme.
- The IRGC said it was monitoring the strait and planned to unveil equipment soon, while tanker veterans reported no new guidance despite the second aircraft carrier sent by the US.
- US officials offered cautious optimism, with JD Vance saying Tuesday talks went well `in some ways` but Iranians rejected some of President Donald Trump's red lines, while Senator Lindsey Graham warned decisions are `weeks, not months` away.
- Market indicators show stakes are high, with Brent crude up almost 13% this year amid US–Iran tensions, while Israel’s push to limit Tehran's ballistic missiles faces resistance and Ayatollah Ali Khamenei warns of escalation risks.
