Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi made remarks on Thursday regarding the latest negotiations between Iran and the United States, which focus on Iran's nuclear program and the potential lifting of sanctions imposed on the country. These indirect discussions took place in Geneva, Switzerland, where Araghchi expressed that they made substantial progress and engaged with key issues surrounding both the nuclear program and sanctions. He emphasized that both parties are seemingly serious about coming to a resolution.

He noted that technical teams from both countries will hold discussions on Monday at the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna, with assistance from the organization's experts. In addition to the upcoming technical negotiations, Iran and the U.S. are expected to engage in another round of discussions soon, potentially within a week. Araghchi pointed out that there are numerous matters that need to be addressed, including documents that must be prepared and consultations that must occur between the parties involved.

This development indicates a shift towards constructive dialogue between Iran and the U.S., particularly regarding critical issues that have long been a point of contention. The potential outcomes of these discussions could have significant implications not only for U.S.-Iran relations but also for regional stability and international diplomatic efforts focused on nuclear non-proliferation in the Middle East.
