According to Tasnim News Agency, the indirect talks in Qatar between Iran and the United States to revive the nuclear deal have come to an end without progress.

An "informed source" quoted by Tasnim said that during the talks, which were mediated by the European Union, the US was not willing to budge on offering Iran “economic guarantees” in the revival of the 2015 nuclear accord, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.

Meanwhile, a contradictory report was published by the Islamic Republic News Agency, which is linked to the administration of President Ebrahim Raisi. According to their source, the talks are still continuing. The talks had been originally scheduled for two days. The Tasnim report, though perhaps wrong on the timeline, does seem to imply that there has been no progress on the talks, which appears consistent with what others have reported.

Enrique Mora, the European Union coordinator for the talks, helped facilitate the meeting by passing notes between Iran and the US. Iran has refused to meet directly with the US after the US exited the deal in 2018 and reapplied sanctions. The US also pursued a campaign of maximum pressure against Iran, which resulted in the assassination of the Quds Force commander Ghassem Soleimani. Iran has accused the Biden administration of continuing many of Trump’s policies.
