An Iranian source claims that President Trump's threat halted the U.S.-Iran talks in Switzerland, leaving the process in uncertainty, according to a statement reported Sunday evening.
An Iranian source said Sunday that President Trump's threat had halted the negotiations with the United States in Switzerland, leaving the continuation of the process in a state of uncertainty. The comment was reported in a brief statement, apparently from an Iranian official or affiliated source, and was framed with a mocking tone by the channel that relayed it.
The claim comes amid a series of disruptions to the U.S.-Iran talks. As The Zioneer has reported over the past week, Tehran has repeatedly blamed Israeli military operations in southern Lebanon for delays and cancellations. On Friday, Iran's Foreign Ministry announced an indefinite postponement after earlier citing Israeli strikes as a breach of diplomatic understandings. The White House had previously attributed a delay by Vice President Vance to logistics.
The identity of the Iranian source was not specified, and the claim could not be independently verified. The talks—initially intended to address Iran's nuclear program and regional posture—have not progressed to a new date.
