RT.com – April 13, 2025
Iran and the United States held their first diplomatic engagement in years on Saturday in the Omani capital of Muscat, with discussions focused on Tehran’s nuclear program and the potential easing of US sanctions.
The two-and-a-half-hour talks were led by Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi and White House Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff.
Although the negotiations were conducted indirectly through Omani mediation, the heads of the two delegations – Araghchi and Witkoff – briefly spoke face-to-face in the presence of Oman’s Foreign Minister Badr al-Busaidi after the formal talks concluded.
Addressing reporters in Muscat, Araghchi described the first round of negotiations as “constructive” and held in a “calm and very respectful atmosphere.”
“No inappropriate language was used, and the two sides demonstrated their commitment to advancing the talks until the achievement of a mutually favorable agreement from an equal position,” the Iranian minister said.
According to Araghchi, both sides aim to outline a general framework for a future agreement in the next round of talks. He indicated that the second meeting is scheduled for April 19, although it may not take place in Muscat.
“In the next round of the talks, we will try to enter the negotiations’ agenda, which will of course have a timetable alongside it,” he said, expressing hope that the two sides could finalize a basis for starting “real talks” soon.
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Saturday night, President Donald Trump said the talks with Tehran “are going okay.”
“Nothing matters until you get it done, so I don’t like talking about it. But it’s going okay. The Iran situation is going pretty good.”
Meanwhile, the White House emphasized that – despite Tehran’s insistence on indirect talks – Witkoff met Araghchi face-to-face, calling the “direct communication a step forward in achieving a mutually beneficial outcome.”
Witkoff, a close confidant of President Trump and Washington’s lead negotiator with Moscow, has also played a prominent role in regional diplomacy. Even before Trump took office, Witkoff was credited with allegedly convincing Israel to agree to a Gaza truce.
The next round of negotiations with Iran is expected to take place on April 19. While both sides have expressed cautious optimism, analysts noted that significant challenges remain. Iranian officials have publicly opposed major concessions, while President Trump has reportedly given negotiators a two-month deadline, warning of possible military action if talks fail.
Keep in mind that nukes, have nothing to do with the Nazis attitude towards Iran.
The only reason why Donald Hitler needs an off ramp on Iran, is that Nazi Amerika and Joolandia will get their butt’s kicked so hard, they won’t know what’s hit them.
Bunker busting bombs won’t work, and the B2s won’t get anywhere near their targets. There’s around 40 to 50,000 Nazi Amerikan troops in the Middle East, and the US can’t protect them one iota.
The Russians briefed Nazi Amerika before these indirect talks, and Nazi Amerikan defeat was laid out for the Nazis to see.
This is a grand lesson in information ignored. They’ve blanked out the missile age (Hooties) & they didn’t see a new layer of war with drones, although they’ve made up in UKraine.
The MIC system is such a corrupt gravy train that new munitions contracts cost billions and billions, and need to run for decades, otherwise the MIC won’t touch them.
As an addition, I’d like to point out that Nazi Amerika is going to print money to infinity, given that its shot itself in both feet, and to underline Donald Hitler’s madness, he’s lifted tariffs on iphones and laptops. If I were the Chinese, close these manufacturing facilties down, kick them out!
It appears the UK Nazi regime has nationalised British Steel, simply on national security grounds. The UK Nazi regime is promising to QE British businesses, using Donald Hiler’s tariffs as an excuse.
The British Nazis won’t put tariffs on Samsung TVs, or iPhone, they won’t ban the big banks and transnational corporations, to rebuild the UK economy. Just as in Nazi Amerika, its a Nazi cult myth to MAGA, and the UK Nazi elites have zero intention to rebuild the UK economy, because they work for the City Crime Cartels, and MI6 makes sure nothing changes.
It’s a big leap from City Crime Cartels, to a real UK based economy.
The UK thicko sheeple tax payer, pays every salary at BAE Systems, and that includes BAE employees around the world, and in Nazi Amerika, and nothing produced by the MIC contributes to the real economy.
“Witkoff was credited with allegedly convincing Israel to agree to a Gaza truce.” — truce? what truce? The jews never stopped their murder spree in Occupied Palestine.
Our side needs statesmen and diplomats not children with big guns.
Labour candidate kicked out of party in a racist attack
a nonsense anti-Semitism row while fighting for a council seat
Story by Ethan Croft • 14h •A Labour candidate who was kicked out of the party over anti-Semitic remarks is fighting to hold onto his council seat.
The popular Azhar Ali was dropped by Labour in last year’s Rochdale by-election after he was found to have spread a conspiracy theory about israeli terrorism
But now he is standing as an independent in the Nelson east division of Lancashire county council, which he has represented since 2013.
The May 1 contest is said to be a “litmus test” for anti-Israel sentiment in the area.
anyone who supports israeli genocide must be a psychopath
Mr Ali was formerly the Labour leader of the council and holds an Order of the British Empire medal for services to his community.
During the February 2024 Rochdale by-election, Labour pulled its support for Mr Ali after he argued that Israel had “allowed” the Oct 7 attacks to happen in order to justify a war in Gaza which is true
Continuous satellite surveillance plus cameras ever few yards meant of course israel knew, to ban the popular mr ali is a racist attack on his character
The US might be even more interested in war for other economic news that’s unrelated to its tariff woes. A large shopping mall is in financial trouble and behind with mortgage payments. It’s one of three malls owned by the same company. This may signal trouble for the present corporate preference for many big retail stores in a relatively small area, where another measure of success they look for is ‘footfall’. This may mean we in the west as well as in the US may find ourselves returning to the more natural order of things with more but smaller outlets in streets and markets. Maybe big retail has had its time and made its money but has got too big to finance itself, and we’re about to go back to what they took over from?
