American Message to Iran: We Expect Tangible Concessions in the Next Meeting

SadaNews - All eyes are on the upcoming round of talks between the United States and Iran amid rising political pressure and the exchange of indirect messages, with Washington hinting at tougher expectations from Tehran, while Israel pushes to expand any potential agreement to include additional restrictions beyond the nuclear issue.

Israeli Channel 15 reported that the American administration conveyed a message to Iran indicating that it expects Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi and his accompanying delegation to attend the next meeting with "serious and meaningful substance."

The channel cited American officials stating that Washington anticipates Tehran to present concessions on various issues during the upcoming round of talks.

"Restricting Missile Range"

In the same context, Channel 13 reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu intends to request President Donald Trump to include a clause related to "restricting missile range" in any potential agreement with Iran, signaling an intention to expand the negotiation framework to include the Iranian missile program alongside the nuclear issue.

These developments come amid the resumption of diplomatic efforts between Washington and Tehran to discuss the future of the Iranian nuclear program, following years of tension and mutual escalation.

Israeli Warnings

The United States has repeatedly emphasized that any new agreement must be "stronger and longer-lasting," while Iran refuses to include its missile program in the negotiations, considering it a defensive matter.

The Israeli stance aligns with previous warnings issued by Netanyahu, who has called on several occasions not to limit concerns to the nuclear aspect, but to address what Israel describes as "regional threats" from Iran, primarily the development of ballistic missiles.

Western reports have indicated that the upcoming round of talks could represent a crucial test for the possibility of progress, amid varying stances between the parties and domestic political pressures in both the United States and Iran.
