Iranian foreign minister claimed \u2018good progress\u2019 made and further talks expected \u2013 key US politics stories from Thursday, 26 February at a glance
High-stakes talks between the US and Iran<\/a> over the future of Tehran\u2019s nuclear programme ended on Thursday without a deal, as the White House weighs a military operation that would mark its largest intervention in the Middle East in decades.
The Iranian foreign minister, Abbas Araghchi, claimed \u201cgood progress\u201d had been made at the talks and Omani mediators predicted negotiations would reconvene at a technical level next week in Vienna. Araghchi later confirmed that further contacts would take place in less than a week.
But there was no immediate evidence to support suggestions that the two sides had drawn closer on the fundamental issues of Iran\u2019s right to enrich uranium and the future of its highly enriched uranium stocks.
The indirect talks in Geneva were held in two sessions, with reports that the US team led by Donald Trump\u2019s special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, had been disappointed by the proposals put forward by Iran.
The brevity of the second session of talks appeared ominous, observers said.
Nonetheless, the Iranian and Omani mediators sought to cast the talks in a hopeful light, likely seeking to avert a US threat to launch strikes from its fleet of aircraft and warships that have massed in the region.
