Iran and U.S. Set to Resume Critical Nuclear Talks in Oman

Iran is set to hold a fourth round of indirect nuclear talks with the United States in Oman. The discussions, originally scheduled for Rome, were delayed due to logistical issues. The U.S., under President Trump, demands resolution regarding Iran's nuclear program, which Iran claims is civilian-focused.

Iran has agreed to continue indirect nuclear discussions with the United States, set to commence on Sunday in Oman, according to semi-official Tasnim News Agency reports.

The much-anticipated fourth round of negotiations, initially planned for May 3 in Rome, was postponed over logistical issues. Oman, acting as a mediator, extended the proposal to reschedule the talks, to which Tehran has agreed.

The talks come amidst threats from U.S. President Donald Trump to bomb Iran if an agreement is not reached. While Western nations argue that Iran's nuclear program is aimed at developing weapons, Tehran insists it remains focused on civilian purposes.
