Media: US accepts preconditions for Iran talks

The United States has informed Pakistan that it agrees to the preconditions for the start of negotiations with Iran, although some of those conditions have not yet been fulfilled, Iran's  Sabereen News reports.

A reminder that one of the key preconditions for initiating talks include a ceasefire in Lebanon and the unfreezing of Iranian assets.

The ceasefire, announced on April 8, temporarily put a stop to the US and Israel war against Iran. Yet, since the deal was struck, conflicts have erupted over the 10-point Iranian proposal to pause the fighting.

Both sides have offered differing accounts of its terms after agreeing to them. One critical point of discord has been whether the ceasefire applies to Israel’s offensive in Lebanon.
