Washington, DC – US Vice President J.D. Vance acknowledged that the ongoing technical negotiations with Iran may not resolve all points of contention between the two sides.
However, he emphasized that they represent a significant step because they allow both sides to meet for the first time in direct dialogue.
This dialogue focuses on implementation mechanisms and technical issues related to the recent agreement.
Vance explained that the US administration views these talks as an opportunity
to establish practical channels of communication between Washington and Tehran.
This will help address outstanding issues and determine how to implement mutual commitments in the coming phase.
First live interview
The US Vice President noted that the current technical meetings are of particular importance
because they bring together representatives from both sides in a direct negotiating framework.
This could help narrow the gaps in their disagreements and enhance the chances of reaching more stable understandings.
Vance added that the success of these meetings is not measured solely by their immediate results,
but also by their ability to establish a continuous communication mechanism
between the two sides to address the complex issues that have accumulated over the years.
Supporting the negotiation process
Vance emphasized that the US administration has prioritized the diplomatic track during this phase.
He indicated that continued dialogue is the best way to address contentious issues
and avoid a return to cycles of escalation and tension.
He stressed that Washington is closely monitoring the outcomes of the ongoing technical meetings.
He also expressed hope that these meetings will contribute to strengthening mutual trust
and creating the conditions for further understandings in the future.
Commitment to de-escalation
In a related context, the US Vice President explained that President Donald Trump is committed to achieving a complete ceasefire in the region.
This is considered one of the main objectives of US policy in the coming period.
Vance indicated that reducing regional tensions and containing conflicts are essential parts of the ongoing diplomatic efforts.
He also emphasized that the US administration views regional stability
as a prerequisite for the success of any long-term political or security agreements.
