Negotiators from United States and Iran are meeting today in Geneva for a new round of high-stakes talks aimed at addressing concerns surrounding Tehran’s nuclear program and reducing escalating regional tensions.
The discussions come amid renewed political pressure and warnings from US leadership. President Donald Trump has repeatedly stated that Iran seeks to develop a nuclear weapon, a claim Tehran strongly denies, insisting that its nuclear activities are intended solely for peaceful civilian purposes.
An Iranian delegation arrived in Switzerland seeking to prevent further escalation and avoid the risk of military confrontation, particularly after recent US statements hinted at the possibility of force if diplomatic efforts fail, dw.com reports.
Meanwhile, US Vice President JD Vance cautioned Iran against pursuing nuclear weapons capabilities but emphasized that Washington remains committed to achieving a peaceful diplomatic solution.
The Geneva talks take place against a backdrop of heightened US military presence in the region and ongoing domestic pressures inside Iran, increasing the urgency for both sides to reach a balanced agreement capable of easing tensions and restoring stability.
