The first phase of negotiations between Washington and Tehran has ended without decisive progress, after 21 hours of talks in Islamabad. Both sides have ended this first cycleof contacts, the most important in almost half a century, but without the expected consensus.
The US Vice President, J.D. Vance, has confirmed that there is no agreement, but has stressed that has launcheda "final offer" based on a "methodof understanding " E, leaving open the possibility of future talks.
The US remains committed to Iran's clear, verifiable and long-term commitmentnot to develop nuclear weapons , as well as restrictions on instruments that could facilitate their acquisition.
However, it has indicated that the US Administration has acted flexibly in other respects, but making it clear that without a strong nuclear guarantee no agreement can be reached.
Iran, for its part, has reacted harshly and accused Washingtonofmaking "abusive demands and unlawful demands. "Tehran insists that it will not renounce its rights and that, in order to reach a treaty, all sanctions must be lifted.
It has argued that the Iranian Government has sought to combine pressure and diplomacy and has reiterated that it will not abandon any instrument to protect its national interests.
One of the most complicated points has been the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has warned that the situation on this key path to global trade will not change until a "reasonable agreement" is reached with the US.
This strategic location, through which much of the world's oil flows, has become an important focus ofinterest. The stability of the Ormuz is directly linked to the success or failure of the negotiations, which has further heightened international concern.
Pakistan, as mediator, concludes this phase and calls on both sides to maintain the ceasefire. Islamabad says it is important to address the dialogue positively and is open to further mediation in the future, leaving open the possibility of a second phase of negotiations .
