Tehran, Iran – The Iranian news agency Tasnim reported that the agreement currently being negotiated with the United States may be at risk of being canceled. This comes amid what it described as American obstruction of some key points in the negotiations.
Ongoing tension in the negotiation process
The agency quoted unnamed sources as saying that disagreements persist on a number of sensitive issues. This threatens to slow down or even derail a final agreement between the two sides.
According to the report, the Iranian side believes that some of the conditions proposed by Washington are inconsistent with the initial understandings reached during previous rounds of negotiations.
The source indicated that the continuation of these disagreements could derail the diplomatic process or lead to a reassessment of Iran’s participation in the negotiations. This could occur if a compromise is not reached.
These statements come at a time when international reports indicate relative progress in the indirect talks between the two parties. These talks are being mediated by regional and international actors.
Nuclear file and sanctions at the heart of the dispute
The main points of contention between the two sides revolve around Iran’s uranium enrichment program and the level of international oversight. There is also disagreement over the economic sanctions imposed on Tehran.
Iran has previously stated that any agreement must guarantee the actual lifting of sanctions. On the other hand, the United States insists on the necessity of imposing strict restrictions on Iranian nuclear activities.
The US-Iranian negotiations are being closely followed internationally. This is due to their direct impact on regional security and the stability of global energy markets.
Observers believe that the conflicting indicators—between talk of progress in the negotiations and warnings of their collapse—reflect the complexity of the issue and the intertwining of its political and security dimensions.
