Rome (dpa -Afx) – The USA and Iran have ended a decisive round of negotiations in the dispute over the Iranian nuclear program without a breakthrough. After around three hours, the talks in Rome came to a conclusion with the mediation of the Gulf State of Oman, as its Foreign Minister Badr al-Busaidi explained on the platform X. There are “some but not final progress,” wrote the Omani minister. “We hope to be able to clarify the remaining questions in the coming days.” It was already the fifth round of negotiations between Washington and Tehran.

In this central point of view, experts see the crucial question of whether the conversations fail or succeed ./arb/dp/men
