Iran talks will fail if US does not show flexibility, IRGC outlet says
Talks with Iran will fail unless the US shows flexibility, the IRGC-linked Fars news agency reported citing a source close to the Iranian negotiating team.
The source said Tehran would not discuss its nuclear program at this stage and would make any such talks conditional on US confidence-building measures.
Fars reported that the release of Iran’s blocked funds was among Tehran’s main conditions for starting negotiations, while the rules for ship passage through the Strait of Hormuz remained another point of dispute.
Despite Washington accepting some of Tehran’s positions, the three issues remain unresolved and Iran is preparing other options, Fars reported citing the source.
