Sources: U.S., Iran Making Progress in Talks
(Jerusalem Post) Amichai Stein - Progress has been made in recent efforts to formulate a memorandum of understanding and principles between the U.S. and Iran, though significant gaps remain, three regional sources told the Jerusalem Post on Wednesday. The talks have focused on outlining a framework that could enable continued negotiations while temporarily reducing tensions. However, Israeli officials assess that even if understandings are reached at the diplomatic level, Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei is expected to reject any compromise perceived as limiting Iran's strategic nuclear capabilities or regional influence. Israeli officials stressed that despite diplomatic contacts, the military option "remains on the table" for Trump.
