Trump insisted the current negotiations are designed to prevent Tehran from gaining nuclear capabilities. He added that discussions remain constructive, though both sides need time to finalize terms carefully.

Iran Nuclear Talks Continue Amid Ceasefire Efforts

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said “significant progress” has been achieved in recent talks but acknowledged there is still work left before any formal agreement is reached. At the same time, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei warned that recent diplomatic momentum does not mean major disputes have been resolved.

Reports suggest a possible framework may include a 60-day ceasefire extension and reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping route for global energy supplies, as negotiations continue between Washington and Tehran.
