US-Iran nuclear talks began in Oman with a 90-minute procedural meeting, where Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi cautioned against American “adventurism.” The discussions, mediated by Oman, aimed to establish conditions for resuming comprehensive negotiations, as Gulf states intervened to prevent a collapse after Iran requested to move the venue from Istanbul. Despite regional pressures, Iran remains focused on a bilateral format limited to nuclear issues while using the diplomatic process to manage US military threats. Observers note that the engagement serves as a means of “decompression” rather than a resolution, highlighting the delicate nature of diplomacy in the region.
