🔥The third round of talks between Iran and the U.S. has concluded, with disagreements on the three main core issues still remaining

On April 12th, according to CCTV News, Iran and the U.S. have finished the third round of negotiations in Islamabad, with Iran describing this round as the "last chance" to reach a framework agreement. Since the 11th, the two sides have had intensive negotiations and discussions into late at night, seizing the temporary ceasefire window to accelerate their bargaining, but sharp disagreements remain on three core issues: control of the Strait of Hormuz, the unfreezing of overseas assets, and uranium enrichment. Outside the negotiation table, the U.S. military announced it was conducting mine-clearing operations in the Strait of Hormuz, while Israel’s Prime Minister claimed they would continue to strike Iran and its proxies. With the ceasefire window closing, diplomatic negotiations and military actions are intensifying simultaneously, and the Middle East situation is at a crossroads between war and peace.
