According to the same sources, intensive diplomacy continues behind closed doors. The talks are currently focused on a gradual process in which the first step of a possible agreement would be a return to the pre-war situation and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz without restrictions and fees for passage.
The issue of Iran’s nuclear program, which both the United States and Israel have cited as a reason for war, should come up at a later stage of the negotiations.
US President Donald Trump has previously said that any deal would require Iran to give up its uranium stockpile nearly enough to build a nuclear weapon, as well as completely abandon its enrichment, which Tehran has steadfastly refused to accept.
According to the same sources, mediators are stepping up pressure on both sides to reach an agreement, and the next few days are considered crucial. The whole process still hangs over the possibility that the United States could withdraw from the negotiations and turn back to military conflict.
