The United States and Iran have agreed to continue discussions over Tehran’s nuclear program.

The decision came following a three-hour round of talks in Oman’s capital, Muscat.

A US official expressed optimism, stating, ‘We are encouraged by today’s outcome and look forward to our next meeting.’

The talks in Oman were seen as a positive step towards reviving the 2015 nuclear deal, which the US withdrew from in 2018.

Iran has been pushing for the removal of US sanctions as a condition for returning to compliance with the nuclear agreement.

The Biden administration has signaled a willingness to rejoin the deal, but negotiations have been complicated by various factors.

The talks in Oman were described as constructive, with both sides showing a willingness to engage in further discussions.

The next meeting between the US and Iran is expected to take place in the coming weeks, with hopes of reaching a mutually acceptable agreement.

The international community is closely watching the negotiations, as a successful outcome could have significant implications for regional and global security.
