US and Iranian officials meet separately with Omani mediator

The US delegation to indirect talks in Oman met separately with Omani Foreign Minister Haitham bin Tariq Al-Ma’ani on Tuesday. The meeting took place as part of the ongoing negotiations between Washington and Tehran.

Separately, an Iranian official also met with the Omani foreign minister. Details about what was discussed during these meetings are not yet available.

The talks in Oman aim to facilitate a resolution to the tensions between the US and Iran. However, several key points remain unclear, including what specific issues will be addressed in direct contact between the two sides.

The indirect talks have been ongoing since February 2021, with multiple rounds of negotiations taking place in Oman. The meetings are aimed at finding common ground and reducing tensions between the two countries.

It is worth noting that the US and Iranian delegations have not yet made direct contact during these talks. However, officials from both sides have expressed a willingness to engage in direct discussions once certain issues are clarified.

The Omani government has been acting as a mediator in the negotiations, facilitating communication between the two parties. The talks are ongoing, with no official end date announced at this time.
