US-Iran nuclear talks move to Oman as both sides seek de-escalation 

Washington / Tehran (Web Desk): In a major diplomatic development, the planned talks between Iran and the United States (US) to ease rising tensions will now be held in Oman rather than Turkey.

Tehran’s success in convincing Washington to shift the venue is being hailed as a notable achievement on the diplomatic front.

According to international media reports, Iran had emphasized that Oman, being neutral and strategically suitable, was the most appropriate location for the discussions.

The Trump administration accepted this proposal, granting formal approval to hold the negotiations in the Gulf nation.

Both countries’ delegations are set to meet in Oman on Friday. The Iranian Foreign Ministry confirmed that all preliminary preparations and arrangements for the talks have been completed.

This development comes amid heightened pressure, as President Trump had warned of “serious consequences” should the negotiations with Tehran collapse.

Analysts suggest that Iran’s ability to bring the talks to a venue of its choice reflects a significant diplomatic success, even in a tense climate.

Oman, long recognized as a neutral intermediary in the region, now takes center stage in these negotiations, raising cautious hopes for a new chapter of stability and peace in the Middle East.
