 The second round of indirect Iran-U.S. nuclear talks mediated by Oman began in Geneva, Switzerland. U.S. presidential special envoy Steve Witkoff and President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner represent Washington in the negotiations. Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi leads a "diplomatic and specialized" delegation to the talks. The meeting follows the first round of talks in the Omani capital of Muscat on Feb. 6, which was described by both sides as a "good start" but yielded no visible breakthrough. |
