A conservative Iranian newspaper welcomed the first round of nuclear talks in Oman, saying both Tehran and Washington showed intent to resolve disputes.

Jomhouri-e Eslami argued that Iran had already addressed US concerns over nuclear weapons through religious rulings, IAEA reports, and inspections.

The paper described the talks as a response to public needs, noting a positive reaction from markets.

Warning of “a noisy minority” seeking to sabotage diplomacy, it wrote in its editorial: “The triangle of wealth, coercion, and hypocrisy cannot stand against the will of the people,” urging officials to continue negotiations despite internal opposition.

An Iranian reformist called for Iran and the US to restore diplomatic ties and open embassies in each other’s capitals, saying direct negotiations should begin at the foreign ministry level.

“If progress is made, talks should move to senior leadership and embassies should reopen,” Mohsen Rahami told Khabar Online website on Saturday.

The former MP said 98 percent of Iranians would support such engagement if a referendum were held. He criticized reliance on “third-tier mediation” and dismissed hardline opposition as noise that should not dictate policy.

An Iranian parliamentarian warned the United States on Sunday that Tehran's response to even the slightest mistake during ongoing nuclear negotiations would be crushing.

Abbas Goudarzi, the spokesperson for the Iranian parliament's presiding board, said that if the US attempts to engage from a position of force and threat, “it would certainly bring more harm to its own interests."

Goodarzi said that "today, the Islamic Republic is capable of targeting any point of America's interests as its legitimate target."

Nuclear negotiations will be stopped if the United States introduces non-nuclear topics such as Iran’s missile program, said Esmail Kowsari, a member of parliament’s National Security Committee, in reference to the Oman talks.

“If in the negotiations, America tries to bring in issues beyond the nuclear file, like defense and missiles, the talks will definitely be halted,” he said.
