Iran, US hold new round of nuclear talks in Rome

Iranian and US negotiators met in Rome on Friday for a fifth round of nuclear talks, after a public disagreement over Tehran’s uranium enrichment.

The talks, which began in April, are the highest-level contact between the foes since the United States quit a landmark 2015 nuclear accord during president Donald Trump’s first term.

Since returning to office, Trump has revived his ‘maximum pressure’ campaign on Iran, backing talks but warning of military action if diplomacy fails.

Iran wants a new deal that would ease sanctions which have battered its economy.

‘The fifth round of indirect talks between Iran and the United States, led by Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi and US special envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff, began in Rome, with the mediation of Oman,’ Iran’s Tasnim news agency reported.

The fourth round of talks, in the Omani capital Muscat, ended with a public spat over enrichment.

Witkoff said Washington ‘could not authorise even one per cent’ enrichment — a position Tehran called a red line, citing its rights under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

Ahead of Friday’s talks, Araghchi said ‘fundamental differences’ remained with the United States, while adding that Tehran was open to its nuclear sites undergoing more inspections.

‘We will not have an agreement at all’ if the United States wants to prevent Iran from enriching uranium, he said.

Iran’s official IRNA news agency reported that the talks in the Italian capital were scheduled to begin at 1:00pm (1100 GMT).

They come ahead of a June meeting of the UN nuclear watchdog, the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency, and the October expiry of the 2015 accord.

The deal, known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, aimed to allay Western suspicions that Iran was seeking a nuclear weapons capability, an ambition that Tehran has consistently denied.

In return for curbs on its nuclear programme, Iran had received relief from international sanctions. But the accord was torpedoed in 2018 when Trump unilaterally withdrew the United States and reimposed sanctions.

A year later, Iran responded by ramping up its nuclear activities.

It is now enriching uranium to 60 per cent — far above the deal’s 3.67 per cent cap but below the 90 per cent level needed for a nuclear warhead.

Analysts in Tehran said Iran was unlikely to back down.

‘It’s quite simple; if the US expects Iran to halt nuclear enrichment, then there can’t be a deal,’ said Mohammad Marandi, a political scientist who was once an adviser on the nuclear issue.

The Atomic Energy Organisation of Iran says the country’s nuclear industry employs 17,000 people, similar to other countries where uranium is enriched for civilian use.

‘The Netherlands, Belgium, South Korea, Brazil and Japan enrich (uranium) without possessing nuclear weapons,’ its spokesman Behrouz Kamalvandi said.

Iran’s enmity with Israel, whose main backer is the United States, has been a constant backdrop to the talks.

In a letter to the United Nations, Araghchi wrote: ‘We believe that in the event of any attack on the nuclear facilities of the Islamic Republic of Iran by the Zionist regime, the US government will also be involved and bear legal responsibility.’

The warning came after CNN, citing unnamed US officials, reported Israel was making preparations to carry out such a strike.

The White House said Trump had a ‘productive discussion’ with Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday about Iran and the fatal shooting of two Israeli embassy staff in Washington.

Friday’s talks take place before an IAEA Board of Governors meeting in Vienna in June during which Iran’s nuclear activities will be reviewed.

The 2015 deal provides for the possibility of UN sanctions being reimposed through a mechanism called ‘snapback’ if Iran fails to fulfil its commitments.

The agreement’s three European parties — Britain, France and Germany — have warned they will trigger the mechanism if the continent’s security is threatened.

Araghchi said such a move would have ‘consequences — not only the end of Europe’s role in the agreement, but also an escalation of tensions that could become irreversible’.​

Iran has always lost from the inside.

The thing about monarchies, where the Emperor is next only to God, is that if you defeat the emperor and kill him, the nation folds.

This is what ive been saying for 10 years. We allowed China to rope in Russia as the muscle they lacked, while they grew economically to peer status.

And remember, Russia almost once nuked China. Lop Nor standoff with the Red Army.

From there to where we are today.

Both are expansionist powers.

Initially one (czarist Russia) feeding off the other (China).

Now they are ideologically economically and militarily wedded to each other.

Aur hamare double digit sanghi chtye goron ka lun choosne mein lage reh gaye dus saal ke oopar.

Do we have a deep state? Or are we hostage to the fickleness of the Indian voter?

Where are we?

We are having the exact same discussion on my batch group right now ...

In hating something they turned into the saffron Hindu version of that exact same thing.

And their goal and ideal state is a saffron Pakistan.

The fifth round of negotiations between Iran and the United States concluded on Friday in Rome, with limited but inconclusive progress, according to the Omani mediator facilitating the talks.

"The fifth round of Iran-U.S. talks has concluded today in Rome with some but not conclusive progress," Omani Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr bin Hamad bin Hamood Albusaidi announced on the social media platform X. "We hope to clarify the remaining issues in the coming days, to allow us to proceed towards the common goal of reaching a sustainable and honorable agreement."

The discussions, held at the Omani Embassy in Italy, lasted over three hours and were led by Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi and US Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff.

Oman played the role of indirect mediator throughout the negotiations, reports Xinhua.

Italian media reported that ongoing tensions between the two nations have centered on uranium enrichment. The Trump administration has reiterated its demand for Iran to halt all uranium enrichment activities, but Tehran rejected the notion of "zero enrichment" and demanded the lifting of economic sanctions.​
