The United States and Iran have reported progress in their recent nuclear talks. Both countries have agreed to meet again next week to continue discussions. The aim is to reach a deal that could potentially de-escalate tensions in the Middle East.
A US official described the talks as "positive and productive." Iran's top diplomat mentioned that both sides will analyze how to bridge their differences on various topics before the next round of discussions. The upcoming fourth round will be held in Europe.
The goal of these high-level discussions is to create a new agreement. This agreement would prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons, a goal Iran denies pursuing. In return, Iran would receive relief from sanctions.
