Iran-US peace talks persist as asset relief takes center stage amid strikes
TL;DR
Iran and the US appear to keep a peace agreement on track despite renewed US strikes on Iranian targets, which Tehran denounced as bad faith but said it would not abandon the talks, now mediated by Pakistan and Qatar. The negotiations focus on unlocking roughly $12 billion in frozen Iranian assets and granting sanctions relief for oil and petrochemicals within a 60-day window, alongside broader ceasefire and nuclear-term constraints, all amid regional hostilities and domestic political pressure on all sides.
