US, Iran to hold new nuclear talks on eve of Trump travel

The United States and Iran will hold a new round of nuclear talks Sunday in Oman, officials said, just ahead of a visit to the region by President Donald Trump.Trump in his first term withdrew from a nuclear agreement with Tehran negotiated by former president Barack Obama that allowed Iran to enrich uranium at low levels that could be used only for civilian purposes.
The United States and Iran are set to engage in indirect nuclear talks in Qatar, marking the first such discussions since the breakdown of negotiations in August 2022. These talks, facilitated by European intermediaries, aim to address Iran's nuclear program and explore the possibility of reviving the 2015 nuclear deal, from which the U.S. withdrew in 2018. The discussions come amidst heightened tensions and concerns over Iran's uranium enrichment activities, which have escalated beyond the limits set by the original agreement. Both nations have expressed cautious optimism about the potential for progress, though significant challenges remain in reaching a mutually acceptable agreement.
