Pakistan mediation with US in ‘difficult course,’ deadlock remains over enriched uranium issue: Iranian top diplomat

Iran’s Foreign Minister Araghchi stated that negotiations with the US are facing a ‘very difficult course’ due to mistrust and conflicting American messaging, hindering diplomatic efforts. Despite Pakistan’s mediation attempts, a deadlock persists regarding enriched uranium, with China welcomed to play a constructive role. Discussions are ongoing between Iran and Oman regarding the administration and security of the Strait of Hormuz, and bilateral trade with India has declined due to sanctions.
