U.S. and Iranian negotiators are on their way to a venue in Switzerland to discuss details of their interim agreement to halt the war. This comes after Iran said it closed the Strait of Hormuz due to Israel’s attacks in Lebanon. U.S. President Donald Trump in response threatened to impose tolls in the waterway if a final deal isn't reached in 60 days. Talks mediated by Pakistan and Qatar are set to begin Sunday. The deal involves unfreezing billions of dollars of Iran’s assets, and Iran's negotiating team includes central bank and oil officials, among others.
High-level negotiations in Switzerland seeking a permanent end to the Iran war have ended. Mediators Pakistan and Qatar said that technical talks will go on there for the rest of the week in a statement issued early Monday. The United States did not immediately acknowledge it, but Iran, through Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei speaking to the state-run IRNA news agency, said “good progress was made.” Tehran took offense at comments Sunday by President Donald Trump, who threatened to attack and told Iran's president to watch what he says.
High-level negotiations in Switzerland seeking a permanent end to the Iran war ended with lower-level talks planned for the rest of the week. Iran and the United States agreed early Monday to create a “de-confliction cell” to address the fighting in Lebanon. U.S. and Iranian negotiators met in Switzerland for talks on key details of their interim agreement to end the war. A team led by U.S. Vice President JD Vance has met Iranian negotiators, including Iran Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
