Iran's nuclear program. There is a statement from the White House after the talks in Geneva
“Progress has been made, but many details remain to be discussed. The Iranians have announced that they will present detailed proposals over the next two weeks to fill some of the gaps in our positions,” a White House official said in a statement sent to the media after the second round of indirect U.S.-Iran talks in Geneva ended on Tuesday.

The US is talking to Iran. Donald Trump threatens military intervention
During the talks, the American side was represented by the US President's envoy, Steve Witkoff, and Donald Trump's son-in-law and advisor, Jared Kushner. Aragchi headed the Iranian delegation. The talks, as before, were mediated by diplomats from Oman.
The talks with Iran are being held against the background of the US's ongoing buildup of forces in the Middle East and preparations for a potential attack. President Trump has repeatedly threatened Iran that if the negotiations fail, the American attack will be much more powerful than the attacks in June, during which nuclear installations were bombed.
The first round of Iran-US talks was held in Oman on February 6. According to the media, the scope of the talks has been a contentious issue from the beginning: the US demands Tehran make concessions regarding its ballistic missile development program and stop supporting armed groups in the Middle East. Iran insisted that the talks would only cover nuclear issues.
