U.S., Iran Set Third Round Of Nuclear Talks
2 weeks ago
The United States and Iran are scheduled to hold a third round of nuclear talks Thursday in Geneva, as tensions remain high over Tehran’s advancing nuclear program.
The announcement comes as President Donald Trump warned that “really bad things” could happen if a new agreement is not reached.
Iran has signaled it may be open to new concessions on its nuclear activities in exchange for relief from economic sanctions, while continuing to deny that it is seeking to build a nuclear weapon.
U.S. officials say Iran has enriched uranium to near weapons-grade levels, raising concerns in Washington and among its allies. Key sticking points in the negotiations include uranium enrichment limits, Iran’s missile program and broader regional security issues.
