Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi described Thursday’s talks with the United States in Geneva as the “most intense” so far, signalling cautious optimism amid ongoing tensions over Tehran’s nuclear programme and international sanctions.
“Further progress has been made in our diplomatic engagement with the United States. This round of talks was the most intense so far,” Araghchi said in a statement on X overnight. He added that negotiators had made “very good progress and entered into the elements of an agreement very seriously, both in the nuclear field and in the sanctions field.”
