Following the failure of U.S.-Iran peace talks, Pakistan calls for adherence to the ceasefire. Is there any possibility for the continuation of U.S.-Iraq talks? After the temporary breakdown of negotiations between the U.S. and Iran, Pakistan, which mediated the talks, urged both countries to continue respecting the ceasefire they had agreed upon. This is "absolutely essential," said Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar. Pakistan will continue to serve as a mediator to facilitate "dialogue" between Washington and Tehran, Dar added, also thanking the U.S. and Iran for acknowledging Pakistan's efforts to end the war. Is there any chance for peace talks to resume? It appears both sides are in principle willing to engage in further negotiations. Vance's statement that they are leaving an offer on the table is quite ambiguous but does not sound like an immediate end to the talks, which could continue behind the scenes. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Baghai also did not rule out further negotiations, emphasizing that diplomacy never ends. Statements from U.S. President Trump also suggest further negotiations: "I expect them to come back and give us everything we want," he told Fox News. Security expert Peter Neumann from King’s College London does not see the negotiations as ultimately failed. However, he believes it is not enough for one side to dictate terms to the other. If the Americans want to achieve the opening of the Strait of Hormuz and a sustainable solution to the nuclear program, they must make concessions to the Iranians on certain issues, Neumann said. "It is clear: The U.S. has entered an unfavorable strategic situation with this war." But according to expert Neumann, the Iranian democrats are also losing. Why did the talks fail? The American delegation, led by Vice President JD Vance, said the negotiations failed due to what they considered Iran's refusal to abandon its nuclear program. "We need to see a clear commitment that they will not seek nuclear weapons and will not seek the means that would allow them to quickly create such a weapon," Vance said. But Ghalibaf insisted that Iran "will not stop for a moment its efforts to consolidate the achievements of the forty days of national defense," adding: "The U.S. has understood Iran's logic and principles, and now it is time for them to decide whether they can earn our trust or not." /DW
