Trump Confirms: Nuclear Talks Expected Soon Between Washington and Tehran

US President Donald Trump has confirmed that Iran has not agreed to allow inspections of its nuclear sites or to abandon uranium enrichment. However, he considered Iran's nuclear program to have suffered a permanent setback, with the possibility of resuming it at a different location.

During a conversation with reporters aboard his presidential plane, Trump explained that he will discuss the Iranian file with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during the latter's upcoming visit to the White House next Monday.

In a development on the nuclear talks front, two informed sources revealed that US White House envoy Steve Witkoff plans to meet with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in Oslo next week to relaunch the talks, although the date has not been officially set yet.

This comes amidst active mediation by Oman and Qatar between Washington and Tehran, following a 12-day war between Israel and Iran, where the United States mediated a ceasefire.

It is worth noting that the United States and Iran have held five rounds of indirect talks since last April mediated by Oman, before Israel launched strikes on Iranian sites in June, to which Tehran responded with wide-ranging missile attacks, leading to a sharp escalation that ended with the sudden ceasefire announced by Washington.

Meanwhile, both sides continue to seek a new diplomatic solution to Iran's nuclear program amid ongoing regional tensions.
