The United States and Iran are continuing discussions over a proposed 60-day framework aimed at reducing regional tensions and preventing further escalation linked to Iran’s nuclear programme, according to reports published on Thursday.
The proposal is said to include temporary measures and confidence-building steps that could pave the way for broader negotiations between the two sides after months of heightened tensions.
Officials involved in the talks have not publicly confirmed full details of the proposal, but reports indicate the discussions focus on nuclear activities, sanctions relief, and regional security concerns.
The talks come amid growing tensions in the Middle East following continued conflict involving Gaza, Lebanon, and Israel, raising fears of a wider regional confrontation. Iran has repeatedly insisted its nuclear programme is for peaceful purposes, while Western governments continue to accuse Tehran of enriching uranium beyond agreed limits.
Diplomatic efforts between Washington and Tehran have intensified in recent months, with mediators attempting to prevent further escalation and revive stalled negotiations. Analysts say any temporary agreement could reduce immediate tensions, though major disagreements between both sides remain unresolved.
