Disagreement over agenda; Iran, US agree on new round of nuclear talks

Ahmad Shaker Thu Feb 2026 7 months ago 869

Washington insists that the talks must also include Iran's missile program, while Tehran says it will only discuss its nuclear program.


Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State, said on Wednesday: "If the Iranians want to meet, we are ready." He added that the negotiations should, in addition to the nuclear issue, include the scope of Iran's ballistic missiles, Tehran's support for proxy armed groups across the Middle East, and the Iranian regime's treatment of its own people.


Senior Iranian officials have also stated that Iran's missile program is "off the table." Tehran welcomes negotiations on the nuclear dispute; but Washington's insistence on addressing non-nuclear issues could jeopardize the course of the talks.


This diplomatic effort is taking place amid escalating tensions; the United States has bolstered its military presence in the Middle East, and regional actors are seeking to prevent a military confrontation—one that many fear could escalate into a broader war.

Rate this translation:

American and Iranian officials have announced that the United States and Iran have agreed to hold talks in Oman on Friday, February 6; even as the two sides continue to disagree over the agenda for the negotiations.
