The US-Iran talks scheduled for Friday in Switzerland have been canceled, according to a source tracking the negotiations. Iran is blaming Israel for the cancellation, while President Trump indirectly pointed at Israel as well, a post from a desk monitoring the talks reports. No new date has been announced.
The previously scheduled US-Iran talks in Switzerland are off for today, Friday, June 19. A source tracking the negotiations confirms the cancellation, though the brief report provides no reason for the decision nor who made it. Iran is publicly blaming Israel for the cancellation, and President Trump is indirectly laying responsibility on Israel as well, according to the same source. The cancellation follows days of fluctuation in the diplomatic track: as The Zioneer reported earlier this morning, Iran's delegation canceled its Switzerland visit in protest over what it termed an Israeli ceasefire violation in Lebanon. A previous bulletin noted that overnight Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon had already delayed the talks. No new date has been set for the discussions.
