Iran and the United States started in -depth negotiations in Amman Tehran program fast nuclear progress On Saturday, talks may stop the Islamic Republic’s enrichment from uranium.

Iranian government television reported that the talks began in Muscat, the capital coated in the mountains of this Sultanate on the eastern edge of the Arabian Peninsula. A person close to us admitted our envoy in the Middle East Steve Witkeov, and spoke on the condition that his identity was not disclosed to discuss closed talks, as the meeting admitted.

However, no Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi and no Witakouf Any immediate details or details about the conversations they would lead.

Araghchi arrived on Friday in Amman and met with Omani Foreign Minister Badr Al -Busidi, who mediated the two previous talks in Muscat and Rome. Araghchi then visited the Muscat International Book Fair, surrounded by television cameras and press photos. The video showed on Saturday morning, Araghchi, heading to the conversations.

Witkev was in Moscow on Friday, where Russian President Vladimir Putin met. He arrived on Saturday to Amman, where the talks were expected to start in the coming hours, a source familiar with Wittouf told Associated Press, speaking on the condition that his identity was not disclosed to discuss closed negotiations.

The talks seek to reduce the Iranian nuclear program in exchange for lifting some overwhelming economic sanctions imposed by the United States on the Islamic Republic, which is closed in half a century of enmity.

President Trump has repeatedly threatened to launch air strikes targeting Iran if there is no agreement. Iranian officials are increasingly warning that they can follow a nuclear weapon with their in stock of enriched uranium to the levels of the weapons near.

The 2015 Iranian nuclear deal with the global powers was limited to the Tehran program. However, Trump withdrew from one side of it in 2018, when years of attacks and tensions began. The broader Middle East also remains on the edge of the abyss over the destroyer Israel’s war In the Gaza Strip.

“The Iranian situation comes out very well,” Trump said in the Air Force. “We have had a lot of conversations with them and I think we have a deal. It is better to have a deal more than the other alternative. It will be good for humanity.”

He added: “There are some people who want to conclude a different kind of deal – a more exciting deal – and I do not want this to happen to Iran if we can avoid it.”

While Araghchi and Witkoff are expected to speak across the Omanis, experts from both sides will start negotiating the details of a possible deal.

The Iranian government official, from the Iranian side, said that Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Majid Takht Rafshi will lead the Tehran expert team. TAKHT-E Ravanchi participated in the 2015 nuclear conversations.

The American technical team, who is expected to arrive in Amman on Friday, will lead Michael Anton, director of the state’s policy planning staff in Marco Rubio. Anton does not have a nuclear policy experience for those who led America’s efforts in the 2015 talks.

Iran insisted that maintaining its enrichment is the key. But Witkoff may determine the case by suggesting it first in a television interview that Iran can enrich uranium by 3.67 %, and later says that all enrichment should stop. The demand for all enrichment stops was repeated by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

However, the Iranians are still hoping that the conversations will be successful, as the Iranian Rial recovered from the lowest historical levels that took more than a million RIAL to buy one dollar.

“There is nothing wrong with negotiating, making the nuclear program smaller or larger, and reaching a deal,” said Varizin Kievan, a Tehran resident. “Of course, we should not give them everything. After all, we have suffered a lot to this program.”
